RBS ROOFING

Radiant barrier sheathing roofing is a modern, energy-efficient roofing solution designed to reduce heat transfer into your home. It consists of a layer of highly reflective material—typically aluminum foil—laminated to roof sheathing panels, which are installed beneath the exterior roofing surface. This reflective layer works by blocking radiant heat from the sun, helping to keep attic spaces and interior rooms cooler.

Ideal for warm and sunny climates, radiant barrier sheathing is a smart investment for homeowners looking to improve comfort, lower energy bills, and reduce the strain on HVAC systems—all without compromising on the strength and durability of their roof.

Unlike traditional insulation, which slows down heat transfer, radiant barrier sheathing reflects up to 97% of the sun’s radiant heat away from the attic and living spaces. This is especially useful in hot climates where solar heat gain can significantly increase indoor temperatures and energy usage.

The radiant barrier is applied to the underside of the roof deck, facing the attic. When the sun heats the roof, the barrier reflects that radiant energy, reducing the amount of heat that enters the home.
