"Who left the window open?" You probably hear yourself booming through the house for the umpteenth time this week. You go around the house, giving the shake-down to each and every window, just waiting to find the culprit and be done with this annoying heat that just keeps assaulting and assaulting with endless waves of hot air crashing against the house from the outside. Well, it is high summer and temperatures are rising.
As you slowly move through the house, remaining unable to find that elusive open window, you suddenly realize that all windows are shut tight. All doors are closed. The air conditioning system is just about to ask for a raise in its pay due to the hard work it's putting in. But still, the house isn’t cold enough to feel comfortable.
And then it dawns on you: "Eureka! The problem must be with the attic and its insulation!" Nah, it probably won't dawn on you like that, but most odds that's what a professional will tell you.
Heat Transfers from Your Attic
Heat travels, that's a known fact. It travels from a place with higher temperatures to an adjacent place with lower temperatures. And if it's hot outside and nice and cool in your house, the heat will do its absolutely best to get in. Since heat comes from the sun, the first and most powerful point of contact will be the roof and the attic. Heat will hit the roof, move through it into the attic, and will then proceed to move into the house you're working so hard to keep cool.
But, that won't be the case if you'll have radiant barriers installed.
