Radiant Barriers
A radiant barrier is a material that reduces radiant heat gain from sunshine or sun-heated materials that don't touch the radiant barrier. The use of such barriers can reduce need for air conditioning.
The most-effective radiant barriers are shiny foils. The shiny side does not have to face the heat source, but it must have an air space to work.[Image: Radiant Sheathing ]
