<p>Studies show that a majority of the heat that enters your home comes from the sun through the roof into the attic space and then travels through your ceiling into your living space below. On an average summer day, your attic space can quickly heat up to 40 degrees higher than the outdoor ambient temperature.</p> <p>By installing a <strong>RadiantGUARD®</strong> radiant barrier in your attic, you can block 95-97% of this radiant heat  making your home more comfortable while lowering your utility bills.</p> <p><strong>RadiantGUARD® XTREME RADIANT BARRIER TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Structure</strong>: Double-sided reflective metalized film reinforced with a woven scrim lining for durability</li> <li><strong>Weight</strong>: 28 lbs per 1,000 square feet roll</li> <li><strong>Reflectivity</strong>: 95% (ASTM C1371-04a)</li> <li><strong>Fire Rating</strong>: Class A / Class 1 | 0 flame spread / 5 smoke development (ASTM E84-10)</li> <li><strong>Permeability</strong>: 5.88 perms (ASTM E96-00)</li> </ul> <p><strong>APPLICATIONS</strong></p> <ul> <li>New and retrofit residential attics</li> <li>House wrap behind siding and brick</li> <li>Crawl spaces</li> <li>Basements</li> <li>Storage sheds</li> <li>Radiant floor heating</li> <li>Metal buildings</li> <li>Pole barns</li> <li>Agricultural barns</li> </ul>
