In newly-built homes we install our Radiant Barrier
product directly under the floor sheeting. However,
once the house has already been built, our normal
radiant barrier installation is not possible, unless you
have a crawl space. The solution is that when the
carpets or new hardwood floors are being installed, we
lay our Radiant Barrier insulation product under the
material being used.
When tile is being installed, many times a thin board is
placed over the floor sheeting so that the work area will
be even. We install our Radiant Barrier insulation
product between the old floor and the new thin board.
We can also install our Radiant Barrier products
underneath the floors of your existing house to help
keep your floors warmer in the winters, and to stop the
heat transfer. About 10% of your winter heat will
transfer through your floors.
Remember, heat chases the cold, or heat goes to the
cold areas. In the winters the heat inside your home is
always trying to get outside, and in the summers, the
heat outside of your home is always trying to get inside
your home.
CONCRETE FLOORS
Concrete floors can be very cold in the winter. They
suck the energy right out of your home, or commercial
building, and into the concrete and earth below.
Installing our patented radiant concrete barrier product
before pouring a concrete slab will greatly increase the
comfort of any home or commercial building.
Approximately 10% of your energy dollars pass through
the floors.
The other significant benefits of a radiant concrete
barrier is that it protects against vapor and radon gas.
Our Radiant Concrete Barrier product does not allow
moisture to penetrate into the floors or the walls that
are built in, or touching the earth, or ground. Water will
not seep through our Radiant Concrete Barrier product.
No more tarring and sealing walls.
RADIANT-HEATED FLOORS
Our patented Radiant Barrier products work perfectly with and are excellent for radiant-heated floors. When
the radiant heat is turned on, without any radiant barrier in place, the heat that is being emitted is not only
being dispersed into the room, but is also being pulled down into the ground, as well into the space above.
The ground underneath the floor will always absorb the radiant heat you provide to it, consequently losing
the system's efficiency, as well as drastically wasting your energy dollars.
When we install our Radiant Concrete Barrier product under your concrete floor, it will reflect approximately
50% of the heat that would normally be absorbed by the earth, back up and into the area that you are
heating.
Saving your energy dollars and having a significantly more comfortable environment is the result of having
us install our "energy efficient" Radiant Barrier products into your existing home, remodel or new
construction project.
