RadiantGUARD® Attic & House Wrap Radiant Barriers
- Block 97% of the radiant heat,
- Lower attic temperatures up to 30
degrees,
- Reduce heat flow to living spaces up
to 50%,
- Extend the life of air conditioning
units,
- Increase the comfort level of a
home, and
- Lower monthly utility costs.
How much can you save on your
monthly utility bills? Based on independent research studies on
radiant barriers, the Department of Energy supports results that indicate
typical utility bill savings of an average of 17%. Some
RadiantGUARDŽ consumers have experienced even higher savings since
savings are based on the load amount of one's heating and cooling compared
to total utility energy consumption.

floor. It is our bestselling version due to its
extreme durability.
