What are sprayed on radiant barriers?

Radiant barriers are created by applying a special coating of reflective material, much like paint, to your attic ceiling. This keeps out the sun’s heat and energy in the summer by reflecting it back through your roof and away from your attic. By cutting down on the amount of warm air coming out of your attic, your air conditioner won’t have to work as hard to cool your house. It also makes your home more comfortable, especially on hot summer days. In the winter, warm air is prevented from leaving through the roof by reflecting it back into the house.

Solar energy contains radiant heat. NASA first developed the technology to reflect it several years ago. The military followed suit, adapting it for their needs. The technology was recently made available to the public, so now it’s time for use of the radiant barrier in Houston.

Although there are several different types of treatments available, Affordable Attic Insulation uses Heatbloc-ULTRA.   This is a brand new product made by Heatbloc 75.  They took it back to labratory and made a great product even better.  This new product reflects 81% of the sun’s radiant heat as it comes down through the roof, reducing the amount of radiant energy heating up the house. Affordable Attic Insulation has mastered the installation of sprayed-on radiant barrier.  . Houston residents can take advantage of the savings and technology by having this  special reflective coating applied to their attics, where more than 80 % of heating and cooling energy is lost.   For more info.  on Heat Bloc-ULTRA, pleas visit  www.heatbloc.net
