Radiant Barrier

A revolutionary new type of multilayer reflective insulation, eShield™, is unlike any radiant barrier product on the market today. As opposed to radiant barrier products, eShield™ has a center core composed of high-density fiberglass and is true insulation that has the capability to reflect 97 percent of radiant heat transfer. eShield™ is simply more effective at lowering home energy bills than any radiant barrier product out there.

As a retrofit product, eShield™ works in conjunction with existing house insulation, rather than replacing it. In fact, studies have shown that installing one layer of eShield™ may provide more energy savings than adding 5 more inches of fiberglass insulation. eShield™ can be installed in virtually every area of your home, which includes attic, roofs, walls, basements, and more.

eShield™ Multilayer Reflective Insulation Sets Itself Apart from Radiant Barrier Products

There are many other factors that help eShield™ stand head-and-shoulders above radiant barrier products. First, eShield™ has a permeability rating of 13, the highest on the market. This means that it won’t cause mildew or other forms of moisture damage. Second, eShield™ has a class A fire rating. Third, eShield™ does not need wire of any kind to hold it in place. Additionally, eShield™ contains no allergens, and it does not off gas like other insulation products.

eShield™ multilayer reflective insulation is based on the same advanced technology and design as a NASA space suit – it reflects radiant heat. In this way, eShield™ is able to protect homes from the sun’s searing rays during summer and retain interior warmth during winter, dramatically reducing energy consumption year-round.

We invite interested contractors to contact us today to learn more about the opportunities involved in our program. Also, homeowners are welcome to call or e-mail us as well for more information about why eShield™ multilayer reflective insulation is preferred over radiant barrier products and to find a dealer in your area.

Expanding Blown-In AttiCat Insulation System

Loosefill insulation, also called "blown-in" insulation, is made of virgin PINK fiber glass insulation. It's used in new construction and in older existing homes, typically in hard-to-reach areas. Since fiber glass insulation is non-combustible and non-corrosive by nature, PINK fiber glass loosefill insulation offers significant advantages over other loosefill insulation produts.

Attic

 

Facts:

• It will not settle or lose its energy-saving abilities over time.
• It does not require the addition of fire-retardant chemicals that can promote corrosion of pipes or wires.
• It will not rot or decay, support fungus or mold growth, or provide
   sustenance for insects or vermin

 

Mess-Free

  • The AttiCat Expanding Blown-In Insulation Machine conditions the AttiCat Expanding Blown-In PINK FIBERGLAS Insulation by breaking it up and fluffing it.AttiCat™ Expanding Blown-In PINK FIBERGLAS™ Insulation releases and expands completely inside the machine. As the insulation bounces its way up to your attic, it is further conditioned through the length of the hose, breaking it up and fluffing it, creating millions of tiny air pockets that give the material its insulating power.
  • Easy clean-up because the machine does the work
  • Low-dust system

No Settling, High-Value Retention

  • AttiCat™ Expanding Blown-In PINK FIBERGLAS™ insulation will not settle
  • Keeps its energy saving R-value over time

Safe and Reliable

  • AttiCat™ Expanding Blown-In PINK FIBERGLAS™ Insulation is non-combustible and meets all building codes for non-combustibility.
  • Non-corrosive. Doesn't require fire-retardant chemicals which can leach out, promoting corrosion of pipes, electrical equipment or structural metal attachments.
  • Doesn't support mold growth. Inorganic glass fibers do not support fungus or mold growth. Will not rot or decay. (Fiber glass is resistant to mold growth, as tested per ASTM C 1338. However, mold growth can occur on building materials, including insulation, when it becomes contaminated with organic material and when water is present. To avoid mold growth on fiber glass insulation, remove any water that has accumulated and correct or repair the source of that water. Insulation that has become wet should be inspected for evidence of residual moisture and contamination. Contaminated insulation should be promptly removed and replaced.)
  • Won't absorb moisture. Moisture reduces insulation effectiveness. Glass fibers resist moisture build-up.
  • Air pockets formed between FIBERGLAS strands trap airAttiCat™ Expanding Blown-In PINK FIBERGLAS™ Insulation works on the principle of trapped air pockets. Tiny air pockets trapped in the insulation resist the passage of heat flow—heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. Generally, the thicker the insulation, the more air pockets and the greater the insulating power.
  • AttiCat™ Insulation is a great option for your arsenal of energy efficient housing ideas!
