In this application
the Flexfoil is installed as a radiant
barrier. An R-Value cannot be assigned
to the material in this system, as it
is not a closed system. However, due to
the low emittance of foil surfaces (emittance
of 0.03), the flexfoil does not absorb
and re-emit a large amount of radiant
energy. This translates into significantly
increased comfort levels and energy savings. |
