Proper insulation in a homes crawl space is more important than you
may think. 15% or more of a buildings total heat loss can be
attributed to an inadequately insulated or un-insulated crawl space.
Reflective Foil Insulation is an excellent product to use for
insulating a crawl space. It is strong, light weight and very clean to
install...unlike fiberglass insulation. Our crawl space insulation
provides a moisture vapor barrier and controls temperature, while also
preventing cool, damp air from invading the floor above. Rolls of
Reflective Foil Bubble Insulation are made to fit between empty floor
joists or stapled right across the bottom for unfinished
applications creating an R-10.5. See our installation manuals
for more details on installing in your crawl space. Reflective
Insulation will keep floors warmer in your living area above while
regulating temperatures below as well.
