Improve your home's energy efficiency by adding radiant barrier in your attic.

Did you know that traditional mass insulation (fiberglass, cellulose and others) are only useful in slowing down the transfer of heat between your attic and the interior of your home? Once the mass insulation absorbs its max, radiant energy flows freely through the space. This means that in the summer your air conditioner has to compensate for the heat taken in by working harder. And it also means that in the winter, the heat generated to warm the living space is lost through the attic and out through the roof.

Radiant barrier installed to the rafters and joists can greatly reduce the flow of radiant energy, thereby reducing your energy consumption and lowering your heating and cooling bills.

EcoFoil brand is the best reflective foil

Not all radiant barriers are created equal. EcoFoil radiant barrier is made in North America from local raw materials. The product is made of 99% pure aluminum surrounding a tough interior scrim. The product is perforated to allow natural moisture to pass (not collect) while maintaining a strict line of defense against radiant heat transfer.

EcoFoil is the first radiant barrier to pass the ASTM E84-2009 fire test which is the industry standard for testing products for flame spread and smoke development.

Easy to cut, measure and install. Each 1,000sq ft roll weighs just 28lbs and may be cut with scissors or utility knife, yet is extremely resistant to tears. All you need is a handheld staple gun to start saving money today.
