Adding a radiant barrier is like living under the cooling comfort of a shade tree. By reflecting radiant heat away from your home, Thermo Shield helps reduce attic temperatures, cut cooling costs, and keep your family more comfortable year-round.
On hot summer days, your roof absorbs the sun’s heat and transfers it into the attic. Traditional insulation slows this transfer, but a radiant barrier reflects it before it ever enters your living space. The result: a cooler attic, lighter HVAC workload, and lower bills.
Radiant barriers can make attics 10–30°F cooler in Arizona summers, reducing cooling energy use by 5–15% — especially when HVAC ducts or air handlers are in the attic.
Key benefits include:
Radiant barriers are most effective when installed during construction or applied over existing attic insulation with an air gap. Winter benefits are modest unless there’s a reflective surface facing an air space. Proper installation is key — continuous coverage, sealed seams, and maintained ventilation ensure peak performance.
Thermo Shield installs radiant barriers, engineered with the lowest emissivity available (.19) to stop over 80% of radiant heat transfer. It’s an affordable, eco-friendly upgrade that delivers long-term c
