Reflective Thermal Insulation

A permanent way to reduce your energy bills

Reflective barrier insulation reflects the heat which is already inside the house back into the house in winter. In summer, it reflects the heat which is coming into the house back out of the house. It is light, easy to handle and can be laid quickly.

Reflective barrier insulation can reduce your energy costs by over 30%.

               
 

There are three methods by which heat is transferred from one object to another.

1.     Conductive heat transfer - direct contact.
Heat moves through objects depending what they are made of.  Metals are very conductive whereas insulations materials have very low conductivity..

2.     Convective heat transfer - steam or moisture.
If you put your hand above a boiling pot, you will feel heat in the form of steam. This is convective heat transfer.

3.     Radiant heat transfer.
Stand outside on a sunny day and feel the sun's rays on your face. You are feeling radiant heat transfer. All objects above absolute zero, which is - 459.7 degrees Fahrenheit, give out infrared rays in a straight line in all directions.
