Energy efficiency has become a crucial aspect of any home improvement project. There a many things to be done in a home to create greater energy efficiency, but there is one innovation that stands above all. Energy Shield Radiant Barrier is the least-expensive, and most cost-effective home improvement investment you can make to your home. Energy Shied promises to enhance energy efficiency and reduce utility costs.

Understanding Energy Shield Radiant Barrier: energy shield radiant barrier is a reflecive, micro-perforated, breathing barrier designed to minimize the transfer of radiant heat.  It is typically installed in attics, ceilings, walls, or roofs to create a barrier between the interior of a building and the outside environment. At Energy Improvements, we install the energy shield on the attic floor, to give the homeowner both summer and winter benefits. 

Unlike traditional insulation materials, which primarily aim to impede conductive and convective heat transfer, radiant barriers focus on reducing radiant heat transfer. Radiant heat is energy emitted in the form of electromagnetic waves by warm objects or surfaces. In the context of buildings, radiant heat can enter or leave a structure through the roof, walls, and windows, significantly affecting indoor temperature. Energy shield radiant barrier reflect radiant heat away from the building, helping to keep the interior cooler in hot climates or warmer in cold climates. So by having both, traiditonal insulation and radiant barrier, you're protecting your home from all three heat transfers, staying comfortbale all year round and saving lots of money on electic and gas bills. 

Benefits of Energy Shield Radiant Barriers 

  1. Reflects 95% radiant heat energy. 
  2. Reduced eletric and gas bills.
  3. Extends the life of yout HVAC and roof.
  4. Free Maintenence.   
  5. Double Lifetime Warranty.  

Enhanced Energy Efficiency: By reducing the amount of radiant heat entering a building, energy shield radiant barriers contribute to improved energy efficiency. They help reduce the workload on cooling and heating systems, leading to reduced energy consumption and lower utility bills.

Increased Comfort: Radiant barriers minimize temperature imbalances in a building, leading to a more comfortable indoor environment. By reflecting radiant heat away, they prevent hot spots and keep interior spaces evenly cooled or heated.

Environmental Impact: Using energy shield radiant barriers can reduce carbon dioxide emissions associated with excessive energy consumption. By lowering the reliance on air conditioning and heating systems, these barriers contribute to a greener and more sustainable planet.

Durability and Low Maintenance: Radiant barriers are designed to be long-lasting and require minimal maintenance. Once installed, they continue to provide energy-saving benefits for the lifespan of the building.

A material designed by NASA: energy shield radiant barrier was designed to keep astraunats and space craft safe in space. Pockets of space will vary from hundreds of degrees above zero and hundreds of degrees above zero (fehrenheit). Thus, making energy shield a very effective invention for heat transfer. Because of this, energy shield radiant barrier is the best option for residential homes.
