Thank you for your review, most who are pleased and even over-pleased do not write reviews; unless it is bad news then they will tell 100 people. This was a Solar Insulation Job which is fairly new and a lot of people do not know about it; as in this home it will lower temperatures in summer over 10 degrees in the home, over all other insulation's, batten, blown in, encapsulate spray-in foams, and it has no harmful off-gassing or VOC's as it is water -proof and mold-proof. When installed many times it just goes over the insulation already there and will immediately drop temperatures, and in Winter holds the heat in the home. IT is used to wrap the hot water heater and cut down on its energy usage by as much as 40% ; this appliance is 19% of your utility bill. It can be used a vapor barrier and to eliminate temperature inversions which cause over condensation and moisture in home that promotes bio-growth such as mold and bacteria. Do you have condensation on your HVAC vents in ceiling ? Do your walls sweat? Do you have plaster walls that have no insulation? Insulation also as it gets older it losses its "R" factor which means its ability to work, to insulate. Well you can have the Solar sheeting laid right over existing old insulation that no longer works well. Solar Insulation will block 97% of the sun's heat and radiant heat that is entering your home; we have been in attic's that were up to 139 degrees; even R-30 or any type insulation besides the Solar can stop this kind of heat from entering your home's indoors, even if the temperatures were 115 degrees it is a problem, as it creates a temperature inversion and causes the duct work to sweat and drip onto ceilings leaving water spots, how many have been in an office building with the acoustical ceiling tiles and see spots on many of them? That's where the duct work has been dropping water on them and then mold growth soon follows. Take an Air-Handler and the duct work that is in the attic of your home or offices, can you imagine the HVAC system trying to create the cool air in the Air-Handler to promote the desired temperature setting indoor's of your home or workplace with the surface temperature of the unit and ducts at 129 degrees? Have you ever thought why is my unit staying on all day and it is still not as cool as I would like? Well an easy solution is to solar blanket the Air-Handler, and wrap the duct system in attic so there is no temperature inversion which stops the condensation as you dew point temps are way better, and it helps you HVAC to stop struggling and over working to reach the desired temperature, as it is not fighting itself anymore.The Solar will lower the surface and inside temps to a normal 84-89 degrees instead of up to 137..! So the unit can reach the temperature wanted very easy compared to before the Solar wrapping and promote a healthy system and good Air Quality as the ducts are not wet and growing mold and fungi, and the unit is not over producing water and being full all the time producing mold and bacteria growth.
