What is multi foil insulation?
Multi-foil insulation is a type of insulation that is made up of thin layers of reflective foil. Additional insulating material is usually included between the foil layers to maximise its thermal performance. The layers work by trapping the heat.
Does foil insulation keep cold out?
The main benefit of foil insulation is that is capable of reflecting radiated heat. In fact, foil can reflect up to 95% of the rays that hit it. In the summer, this means foil insulation reflects the sun’s heat, so your property feels cooler.
When you’re heating your home in the winter, the foil will work in a similar way but this time reflecting heat back into your home. This prevents heat waste to the atmosphere, making multi-foil insulation a great choice for reducing your energy bills and making your home feel warmer and more comfortable.
Where is multi foil insulation commonly used?
Because of the benefits it offers, multi-foil insulation can be installed in multiple areas where heat escape is likely, including:
