REFLECT HEAT WITH RADIANT BARRIER

Radiant barriers are installed in homes—usually in attics—primarily to reduce summer heat gain, which helps lower cooling costs. Radiant barriers consist of materials (spray, reflective foil, reflective metal roof shingles, reflective laminated roof sheathing, and even reflective chips) that reflect radiant heat rather than absorbing it. Radiant barriers can reduce attic heat, between peak Summertime by approximately 30 degrees (150 degrees to approximately 110 degrees).

Attic radiant barriers in San Antonio are recommended due to our hot summers, especially when your cooling air ducts are in the attic. Our radiant barrier spray, which is similar to liquid aluminum, reduces up to 81% of the radiant heat trying to enter into the attic and does not deteriorate over time as much as other types of materials.
