According to the US Department of Energy, up to 45% of a home’s energy loss is through the attic, but the amount of heat actually lost will depend on where you live and how cold your attic gets. Therefore, homes in colder climates require higher insulation values. Recommended attic insulation levels range from R19 in the southern most parts of the US to R60 in the northernmost.
But the problem with standard cellulose or fiberglass insulation is that they do not prevent the major source of all heat transfer in a home. Approximately 75% of total heat transfer in a home occurs through radiation. Our energy efficient multi-layer thermal reflective insulation reflects up to 97% of all of this heat transfer, which just simply means one thing, energy savings of up to 40%!
