| Wrapping your exposed ductwork
and pipes with Flexfoil can signifIcantly reduce your
heating and cooling costs by minimizing radiant
energy loss. Condensation problems caused by cold pipes
as well as radiant heat loss by hot pipes can also
be reduced. Your ducts
or pipes can be wraped in one of two ways: Lineal Wrapping
or Spiral Wrapping. |

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. |
