Radiant Barrier

How Does Radiant Barrier Work?

A Radiant barrier works by reflecting radiant heat, not emitting it, from it’s surface when it’s temperature increases.  The process of doing this will help lower your utility bills by making it easier for you air conditioning system to cool your home without needing to run as long to get to the desired temperature.

There are a variety of radiant barrier products for the consumer to choose from on the market, but the results can very greatly if it is not properly installed.  The most effective way for North Texas is stapled to the 2 x 6 beams in your attic. Radiant barrier is more effective with proper attic ventilation and attic insulation.  Without these 2 factors your attic can actually get hotter causing your air conditioning system to run more and the attic hotter.

How Much Does Radiant Barrier Cost To Install?

Depending in the installation and product that you choose, it can range from .55 cents to .85 cents per square foot of roof decking space. 

How Long Does Radiant Barrier Take To Install?

Radiant Barrier Installation can take anywhere from 1 to 3 days to install depending on the square footage of the home and the pitch of the attic area to work in.
