What Is a Radiant Barrier and How Does It Work

A radiant barrier is a highly reflective material — similar to the technology used in astronaut suits — that reflects radiant heat away from your home. Installed in the attic, it reduces heat transfer from the roof, lowering attic temperatures and easing the load on your HVAC system. 

Radiant barriers are especially effective when:

• Your air conditioning system is located in the attic 
• You experience high energy bills during summer 
• Your attic suffers from heat buildup or poor ventilation

Why Radiant Barriers Matter in North Carolina Homes

In the Triangle region, homes are exposed to intense solar energy that heats up roof shingles and attic spaces. This heat radiates into your living areas, making your HVAC system work harder. Radiant barriers help by:

• Reflecting up to 97% of radiant heat 
• Reducing attic temperatures by up to 30°F 
• Improving HVAC efficiency 
• Lowering monthly energy bills 
• Enhancing overall home comfort

Understanding R-Value in Home Insulation

R-value measures insulation’s resistance to heat flow — the higher the R-value, the better the insulation. It’s a critical factor in determining how well your home retains heat in winter and stays cool in summer. 

Key R-Value Facts: 

• R-value is more important than insulation thickness or weight 
• 1 inch of insulation = 30 inches of concrete in thermal resistance 
• R-value drops significantly with air or moisture leaks 
• Zone 4 (our service area) has specific R-value recommendations from the U.S. Department of Energy

We help homeowners choose the right insulation type and R-value for their climate zone and home structure.
