We are the only online distributor who is a member of RIMA, the Reflective Insulation Manufacturer’s Association. All of our products are either RIMA verified or pass all the testing requirements of the RIMA Verification Program. What does this mean to you? It ensures we always offer the best material. All products we sell are made in the United States. Imagine this. Guaranteed Best Quality, American Made, Lowest Price, and Free Shipping --- That’s why we are the InsulationStop, the leader in radiant barrier and foil insulation products. The InfraStop™ Radiant Barrier Difference InfraStop™ is like no other radiant barrier product on the market. It’s completely revolutionary to all other products on the market and here is why. 1. This is the old way of making radiant barriers. Here is the new. InfraStop™ radiant barriers are made by a state of the art technology called vacuum metallization. In vacuum metallization, reflective layers are deposited directly onto scrims or strengthening materials. Films are not required. This results in a product that is Lighter, Thinner, and Stronger than laminated products without compromising the reflectivity of the finished product. All other products on the market dedicate up to 50% of their weight/volume to components that do not make the product and stronger. Close to 90% of the total/thickness of InfraStop™ Radiant Barriers are geared for strength. Also, delamination is never an issue because InfraStop™ radiant barriers are not laminates. Conventional radiant barriers are produced by laminating reflective films to a reinforcement material, or “scrim”. You need both products to make the insulation. The films, which provide the low emissivity surface do not have sufficient puncture and tear resistance to be used for radiant barrier applications. The scrim is then used to provide the proper strength and reinforcement. 2.Oxidation & Corrosion: The patented vacummization process that creates InfraStop™ radiant barriers is designed to provide maximum protection against oxidation and corrosion throughout the life of the building structure. The advance technology allows for a highly uniform, pinhole free, nano-encapsulant that functions as a barrier against moisture and other potentially aggressive contaminates. Oxidation and corrosion, more than any other failure mechanism, CAN SPELL DISASTER FOR RADIANT BARRIER PRODUCTS. Aluminum naturally reacts with oxygen to create aluminum oxide (or A1203). This reaction can be controlled if the aluminum is maintained in a stable environment. Unfortunately, an attic IS NOT a controlled environment. As temperature and humidity levels increase, so too does the rate of oxidation - until the entire aluminum layer is consumed by the reaction. This can severely impact the ability of the radiant barrier to deliver on its value proposition. Many conventional coating technologies are incapable of sufficiently protecting vapor deposited aluminum used for radiant barrier applications. 3. Testing: UNPARALLELED STANDARDS FOR QUALITY MANUFACTURING OF RADIANT BARRIERS. No other radiant barrier product is as heavily scrutinized as those coming from InfraStop™. EVERY ROLL of radiant barrier sold by InfraStop™ is tested. Without exception, each roll is measured for emissivity before and after accelerated environmental testing ensuring maximum value for the homeowner. See our radiant barrier white paper to read about the InfraStop™ radiant barrier quality difference. InsulationStop’s Attic Radiant Barrier Foil Attics are the primary source of heat transfer in a home. The overhead sun constantly emits radiant heat that hits the roof and is absorbed into the attic. As the attic temperatures rise, more radiant heat is absorbed and transferred by the ceiling above down to you and into your living space. You can stop this transfer of radiant heat however. Aluminum is one of the most highly reflective materials on Earth. Radiant barriers are highly reflective sheets of aluminum foil woven to a mesh or scrim for thickness, strength, and durability. Installed correctly, and they can lower your attic temperature up to 30 degrees. At InsulationStop.com, we supply the BEST radiant barrier on the market at the LOWEST price.

These two applications are for new construction applications where the radiant barrier will be installed as the roof is installed (left) or when a batten style roof is used for various roofing materials (right). On both applications a suitable airspace is achieved for the radiant barrier to have maximum effectiveness. Measuring How Much Radiant Barrier Insulation You Need If you are planning on installing the radiant barrier on the attic floor you only need to measure for the square footage you intend to insulate. If you are stapling the insulation to the rafters you need to account for the pitch of the roof. First measure your attic square footage. Then determine the pitch or slope of your roof. Use table to find your Pitch Factor. Multiply the Square Footage x Your Pitch Factor = Square Footage of Radiant Barrier Required. Don’t forget to include any gable or other end walls. They will need to be insulated as well. Ordering *Discounts for Radiant Barrier Products Only Our Attic Radiant Barrier ships fast via UPS.

This is a very important component to a healthy, efficient attic. This section deals with the different types of attic ventilation and some key concepts to help you better understand how your particular attic ventilates itself so you can save even more on your energy costs, prolong the life of your structure, and live more comfortably. The two major reasons for attic ventilation is temperature and moisture control. Controlling temperature in the hot months results in lower cooling costs. This is why our attic radiant barriers are effective. They lower the temperature in your attic. This allows less radiant heat into your home. Attic ventilation is just as important. You can also lower your attic temperature by having the correct ventilation. The other reason for attic ventilation is the control of moisture. Moisture that is produced in the home may travel into the attic. This is most prevalent in kitchens and bathrooms. If this moisture can not escape the attic it can condense. This is what causes wood rot, mold growth, and insulation to deteriorate. The two ways to accomplish attic ventilation is by natural ventilation methods or by power ventilation. First let’s discuss natural ventilation. This is the most common method for most homes built within the last forty years. It’s also the most energy-efficient because it works on proven principles. As air becomes warmer it becomes less dense and rises. Also, wind movement around a home creates areas of different pressure. This is how the common ridge and soffit vent system works. If a spaces air inlets or soffits are lower than the air outlets, natural ventilation will occur. The larger the distance between the soffits and ridge vent or inlets and outlets are, the greater the rate of ventilation will be. This is why soffits are on the lowest portion of the roof and the ridge vent is at the highest point. In absence of a ridge vent, other outlet vents such as gable end louvers, and passive roof or turbine vents can be used for natural ventilation. Keep the net area of all the inlet vents and outlet vents the same. Add more vents where appropriate. Power ventilation can be accomplished in two general ways. The first is the whole house fan. These fans are usually mounted in a central area or a main hallway. When in operation, outside air is pulled through open windows and exhausted through the attic. Using the correct amount of outlet vents ensures there is no pressure build up in the attic and the fan will run optimally. The second is for attic ventilators that exhaust either through the roof or through the gable. This system also works well with soffits or other air inlets and should be installed at the soffit area or if no roof overhang exists, in the opposite gable. A benefit of powered ventilation is they provide excellent ventilation even with no wind. A good rule of thumb is the better insulated the attic; the less power ventilation will help. However, some attics cannot be insulated well or cannot be ventilated using natural methods. For these, powered ventilation is needed for temperature and moisture control.
