Installation Ideas - Energy upgrades For Low-E ®

Besides new construction Low-E Reflective Insulation can have a variety of uses when renovating or making your home more energy efficient. In most of the applications listed below Low-E can usually be installed by the homeowner to help with energy savings. From lining your concrete basement walls and floor to stapling under your attic rafters it can help retain valuable heat in the winter and keep the heat out in the summer. The applications are endless! When re-roofing, re-siding, & re-insulating, think Low-E Reflective Insulation!

	Low-E® for HVAC HVAC APPLICATIONS: Our Low-E Reflective Insulation is quickly becoming the insulation of choice for many quality HVAC contractors. Used mainly as a duct wrap this product has many benefits for both the installer and the homeowner versus typical duct wraps. Because Low-E Reflective Insulation is faced on both sides with pure aluminum it has an extremely low e-value (.03) which stops up to 97% of radiant heat transfer. Low-E absorbs absolutely no moisture, so if condensation would occur the insulation will not lose its performance value nor will it mildew or deteriorate. It's totally non-toxic and there are no adhesives used in its construction, resulting in a clean, fiber free, hypo-allergenic duct wrap. Best of all, for the installer it is lightweight, cuts with a razor knife, and there's NO ITCH! Give it a try and find out for yourself. See why Low-E HVAC Insulation is "the most versatile HVAC insulation on the market today!"
	Low-E® for radiant heating applications A number of products in the Low-E Reflective Insulation line lend themselves to various radiant heating applications. Our standard double-sided Low-E® or Econo-E make an excellent crawl space or floor joist insulation, installed with or without radiant heating. Up to an R-20 can be achieved when these products are installed on the bottom of a minimum 2' x 8' floor joist. More importantly, you gain the added benefit of a radiant barrier which reflects up to 97% of the radiant heat back to where you want it, THE FLOOR! Mass insulations don't do this; they simply store the heat and allow it to pass slowly through to the other side. There are several benefits to using Low-E in this application: Superior thermal performance; high R-Values; and the more important benefit of a radiant barrier. It also provides an excellent vapor barrier (when seams are sealed properly.)
	Low-E® for mini storage Keeping your customers property dry is a major concern when building mini-storage buildings. Our product excels as a clean suface vapor barrier. Typically installed from ridge to eve strut the 4' wide wide product is held in place over the purlins by using double sided tape. The tape holds the product in place until the metal panels are attached. The same method of installation can be used for walls, installing the product from eve to base track over the girts. The metal panels are then screwed through the material for a sealed attachment. ESP also manufactures insulation products to keep storage units cool as well as dry. Under slab and interior insulations are also available.
	Low-E® for commercial Steel Low-E® Insulation is the perfect solution for steel building applications of all shapes and sizes. Low-E Insulation installed by itself performs as an insulation, thermal break and vapor barrier. Low-E is often installed in combination with traditional mass insulation to achieve High R-Systems. Low-E is also very effective when installed in retrofit applications when additional insulation is required in existing steel buildings. Low-E insulation products come with numerous features and benefits designed specifically for today's steel building professionals.
