Radiant Barriers- What You Need to Know

A radiant barrier is a thin, reflective foil that blocks radiant heat by reflecting the heat away from the building or back toward its source. As a result of this, radiant barriers help to increase the energy efficiency of buildings by preventing the majority of the sun’s UV energy from heating up the building.

Attic Ventilation

Have you ever gone up into your attic on a hot summer day? If so, you know how hot it can get inside an attic. This heat buildup is one of the main reasons why proper attic ventilation is critical to maintaining the health of your home.

What is SEER rating?

SEER stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. SEER is a rating system that was devised to provide a way to determine the relative operating cost of an air conditioning system or to compare the energy efficiency of air-conditioning systems. The SEER rating is calculated by dividing the cooling output during a complete cooling season by the energy used to achieve that cooling.
