Reflective Insulation
Reflective Insulation Installed in a Steel BuildingReflective insulation is ideal for steel buildings. Metal skinned buildings can get very warm and humid in the summer and cold in the winter.
Reflective insulation will keep the building cool and dry in the summer and warm in winter. Radiant barrier insulation is a reflective insulation system that offers a permanent way to reduce energy costs. Radiant barrier insulation systems reflect radiant heat energy instead of trying to absorb it. A pure aluminum radiant barrier reflective insulation is unaffected by humidity and will continue to perform at a consistent level no matter how humid it may be. A radiant barrier insulation system is a layer of foil facing airspace and is installed in the envelope of a building. It is easy to install, doesn’t promote nesting of rodents or birds, and it looks great!

Reflective insulation is the most effective when incorporated with at least 3/4" airspace between the insulation and any adjacent material. The R value of the system will vary dependent on the airspace size and the direction of the heat flow, and the conductive and convective properties of surrounding materials.

The exhaustive testing and approvals above, go far beyond industry standards as well as those provided by our competitors. Prodex Total Insulation is the only reflective insulation that we’re aware of that is BOTH ICC approved and ENERGY STAR qualified!
