Reflective Foil Insulation — What’s the Deal?

The popularity of “being green” has reached an all-time high. People are seeking various ways to reduce their ecological footprint, while also conserving some hard-earned money. Aside from energy-efficient doors, windows, and metal roofs, reflective foil insulation is a popular solution for keeping the cooling and heating costs at a minimum.

Reflective insulation can be used in all facets of the building industry where traditional insulations are installed. From residential homes to large commercial buildings, this foil insulation can be used alone or in combination with mass insulations. The following are a few features and benefits you can look forward to when you choose this foil insulation:

• It is non-toxic and has no fiberglass.
• It is an excellent vapor barrier.
• It is highly flexible and resilient.
• It is impervious to birds and insects.
• It works equally well for new construction projects and retrofits.
• It decreases cooling and heating bills.
• And many more

The flexibility and durability of reflective foil insulation makes it extremely easy to work with. It will not tear or puncture easily, and its flexibility allows the insulation to seal tightly around fasteners. In addition, this sustainable building product provides maximum energy and cost efficiency since reflective insulation cuts down electricity costs more than conventional insulations. This may also help in qualifying for an energy tax credit.
