Perforated Radiant Shield
Shop with confidence and know that we back our products with high-quality customer service.
For the projects that deserve the very best. This construction grade and industrial grade Radiant Barrier reflective insulation is the thickest and strongest Radiant Barrier product on the market. It can be used in the same applications as our renowned Super R Plus® with the addition of extra strength and rigidity. The increased structural strength of this material makes it the easiest to install. Available in 500 and 1,000 sq. ft. rolls. Perforated or solid depending on the application.
- Thickest and strongest radiant barrier product on the market
- Allows for easier and quicker installation
- Includes all of the same benefits and advantages as the CFB Solid Radiant Shield
Has this been tested by an independent laboratory or government agency? |
The Florida Solar Energy Center at Cape Canaveral has tested radiant barriers in both small-scale laboratory and full-scale building models. Their results indicate that radiant barriers provide significant resistance to heat transfer. Current tests conducted by the Tennessee Valley Authority and the University of Mississippi support the findings of the Florida Solar Energy Center. Northeastern Illinois University conducted winter tests in residential and commercial structures using infra-red thermograph photography. The photos showed significant resistance to heat transfer over the regular insulation. |
What is the “R” value of CFB Radiant Barrier? |
A1 SUMMER: “A radiant barrier system can stop 97 percent of the thermal radiation across an attic space. If it is not stopped, that radiant energy would be absorbed by the ceiling insulation and eventually be transferred to the living space below.” The Solar Collector, Quarterly Newsletter of the Florida Solar Energy Center. “The heat storage capacity of reflective insulation is low. As a result, it does not store heat during summer days, only to pass it on down into the rooms of the house from the attic at night when coolness is most apt to be desired from the point of view of sleeping comfort.” Progressive Architecture, Nov. 1949, Page 76. A2 WINTER: “CONCLUSIONS: Reflective foil retrofitted to fiberglass insulated…buildings is demonstrably effective in reducing heat loss… Installation of foil in uninsulated buildings would show even more pronounced reduction in heat loss.” Effects Of Reflective Foil On Heat Loss in Attic Floors and Metal Building Installations, Northeastern Illinois University, Prof. Charles Shabica, May 20, 1986. |
