Rated 5 out of 5 by from Insulation Oven I wish everyone could know the hidden value of this product. I learned about the solar ovens being used by the women of Somalia refugee camps, made with cardboard and reflective tin foil glued to the surface and shaped to reflect the sun onto a dark pot. This has not only freed up hours a day hunting for fire wood but has also kept them from great harm. With a 3'X4' piece of Reflectix I have duplicated their pattern and have cooked several meals with no fuel and little effort. It folds up and can be carried camping or kept for emergencies. At a little over $5.00 each, every one should have one of these in an emergency preparedness kit!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from We love this product! We use this stuff everywhere we can when building/remodeling our old mobile home. It's easy to work with and helps add insulation. This time we put a new roof on our old RV and placed this product underneath the new roof skin. Every little bit helps with these older "beer cans in the Florida sun"! About 10 years ago we rebuild an old VW Bug and used this product to line the floor and roof before new floor carpet and headliner. Even when parked for hours our bug stayed the coolest car in the parking lot. Next project is using this material to make a sun shield/privacy shield for our VW camping van. Why don't we own stock in this company?

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Update and protect your crawlspace HVAC board box ductwork I needed to "weatherproof" the crawlspace duct board from the summer moisture that attacks the exterior of the duct board over time. To accomplish this I disconnected the flex ducts from the unit, cleaned the entire surface area on the board boxes then sealed and taped any leaks in the existing 20 foot long unit. Next I tightly wrapped the board box with the product, reinstalled the flex ducts and taped the seams. The unit now has a brand new moisture proof surface area that is completely sealed and looks awesome. This also added an additional R3 insulation factor to the unit. Nice product considering the cost vs end result.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Reflective Insulation really works I had just installed Reflective Insulation throughout my roof attic, unfortunately I could not afford the other expensive ones so I was doubtful for its claim in performance by Reflective Insulation. Suddenly we got hit with a Heat Wave in early summer this was the test, I could not believe that I suffered so many hot summers because of the high cost of insulation and all it took was an easy installation of Reflective Insulation to keep my house cooler and I am sure warmer this coming winter. I know my ultility bills will be much lower this year. Thank You HomeDepot

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Will Make a BIG Difference!! I cannot give enough praise to this product. It has lowered our attic temp by at least 30 degrees or more. Air conditioner does not work as hard to keep up. Even our HVAC tech said that it went from one of the hottest to one of the coolest attics. I have two gable vent fans that are set to kick on at 100 degrees.....they have yet to come on this summer (we have had a few days in the upper 90's). I am reluctant to write such a good review.....afraid someone will jack the price up on it. Two notes of interest. A 4 X 100 ft roll is available online....that is the way to go. Much cheaper. Don't buy the Reflectix brand foil tape to tape the seams. The HVAC section at HD has much larger rolls for a little more. Also...it will be much easier to install with 2 workers. It will look like a space capsule when you are done.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from DIY radiant barrier Armed with a sharp knife and 1/2" staples/gun, product is very flexible and does not tear. Immediate results noticed while installing as a radiant barrier in the attic. The 4' width is a bit much for a one-man install, but workable: after installing 3 rolls of this in my attic, if I had to do it over again by myself, I'd go with the 2' width roll. Like this product's performance enough to complete my project (I'll need 14 rolls of the 2' stuff).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Stuff This stuff is a little pricey but I did not want to deal with blown in insulation cutting holes in walls mess etc...... Was skeptical but took a chance. I was able to slide this in the places I needed or staple. It is easy to cut and held together when I had to stuff it in. I installed this in late March my dinning room used to be colder than the rest of the house sucking the heat from other areas had to use an electric heater When walked into my dining room the next morning It was not that cold at all the heat was not on yet I thought maybe it was mild outside. I went out to get the newspaper and found out it was cold outside and frost was on my car windows....... I used the double reflective.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product to insulated duct work The recent cold snap finally motivated me to insulate my furnace/ air conditioning ducting. Because of the amount of ducting in the basement, it has always been one of the warmest rooms in the house in the winter and the coldest in the summer when the AC is on. The difference in the temperature there now after insulating is phenomenal. There's a lot more heat getting to the first and second floors of the house rather than being lost in the basement. I can't wait till summer to see how much cooler the upstairs is. Word of caution, please follow the instructions on how to apply this product

can I use this to cover the inside of windows in an RV to keep the sun out for summer storage, or what other product do I use for keeping sun out

Asked by: JB01
The manufacturer may not recommend it, but having taken my RV to Alaska, twice in winter, I DEFINITELY recommend it. The front window exposure in my RV is 24 feet from driver to passenger side. Two layers of this stuff, cut in the middle so I can open up the windshield to the sun during the day, kept me comfortable and things from freezing. I've also placed it in windows that I don't care to look out of, like the bedroom. It works well with 1/4" thick blue board insulation, for a layering effect. I have squares of it stuffed into the vents, with the vent pillows holding it in place. Everything this stuff does for insulating in winter it also does for shielding from the sun in the summer. I'm sure it probably 'cooks' the plastic on the vents when placed behind a plastic surface, but I've had them up there for 10 years and no problems so far. One thing about using it in the RV...you can get the heat capturing down so well with this product that the RV furnace won't cycle as much. Great for propane use, but not great overnight as pipes are more likely to freeze at night. It takes some practice to get the thermostat just right to cycle so that the water lines on the floor don't freeze when camping in weather below freezing.

Can this be used as an insulation for in-floor water radiant heat application to prevent the heat loss going downwards into the ground?
Asked by: Gosiael
under the floor, but not under the flooring. If you can get to the underside of the floor it should work well (follow the installation instructions).. There are other products that can be applied directly under what ever type of flooring you are going to apply. Just my opinion.

Can I use velcro strips to secure this material inside a marine fish box to help Keep ice a few hours longer? Limited on space. No thick foam pieces. No chemicals. Nothing permanent, needs to be removable and cleanable.
Asked by: MahiMan
Dear Mahiman: Unfortunately, no. Reflectix and similar reflective / radiant barrier products are not magical solutions for insulation, where R-value depends on thickness. In addition, reflective / radiant barriers do not work in cold environments because cold cannot be 'reflected' and the warmer air on the other side is not radiant. In short, the best and only solution is XPS foam board, which provides R-5 per inch of thickness and does not absorb water. So you can cut pieces to glue to the inside your fish box. Also be sure to glue a piece to the underside of the lid. XPS foam board is often used in commercial refrigeration and will not contaminate your fish with any chemicals. Look for Foamular 150 on the HomeDepot website. One place where a radiant barrier would help is on the exterior, if your fish box is exposed to the sun. Velcro pieces to the lid and any side that is exposed to the sun. I hope this is helpful. Mark

Can I use it on a crawl space ac duct

Asked by: Leo
Dear Leo: This is not a good application for Reflectix or similar reflective / radiant barrier products. First, you will need to create a sealed air gap between Reflectix and the duct, on all sides -- as you slide around in the crawl space. This air gap provides almost all of the claimed R-value; without the air gap, Reflectix only provides R-1. Second, maintaining this sealed air gap around bends and elbows is difficult. Third, the maximum R-value without Reflectix corner spacers is R-6. Fiberglass duct wrap is much easier to install; you simply wrap it around the duct and tape the seams with foil HVAC tape to achieve R-8. Plus you can add multiple layers to boost the R-value to R-16 or more. See: Masterflow Model # INSWRP60R8, Home Depot Internet #302000644 Store SKU #1002520421 and Nashua Model # 1207792, Home Depot Internet #100030120 Store SKU #915245 I hope this is helpful. Mark

Can this be used on the basement ceiling?

Asked by: Tom
Dear Tom: Yes, with a few caveats. First, Reflectix has almost no insulation value itself; the R values claimed on the package depend on a sealed 'air gap' that you must create / build when you install it. Second, a question: why do you want to insulate your basement ceiling? Insulation is typically not installed between floors, and will provide minimal benefit. If your basement feels chilly and damp, insulating the walls and floor are most important. Water vapor passes easily through concrete from surrounding soil, and ~4' below grade the temperature is 37 to 52 degrees in winter, depending on where you live. The best option is XPS foam board, which does not absorb water vapor. First, fasten a poly vapor barrier against the concrete wall, and seal the top and sides carefully with DAP 230. If you have not installed a 2x wood interior wall, run 2" thick sheets of XPS along the entire wall -- and build your wall in front of the foam board, so the wood studs do not touch the concrete. Seal the joints and edges of the foam board carefully with Great Stuff 'Windows and Doors', to block air leaks. This version of Great Stuff remains flexible as things expand and contract. Then fill the stud bays with batts of Roxul rock wool, which provide R 4.2 per inch. Look for: Roxul Model # RXCB351525 Internet # 202090820 Store SKU # 974419 If 2x walls are already in place, cut pieces of XPS to loosely fit inside each stud bay, and seal the edges carefully with Great Stuff 'Windows and Doors'. You can add a 2" layer followed by a 1" layer for R15 insulation value -- and effective air / vapor resistance. We recently completed a major remodel in Massachusetts and filled all of the stud bays like this -- a photo is attached. If your flooring is not installed yet, lay a 1" or 2" layer of XPS board on the floor and seal the joints and edges carefully with DAP 230. Then add plywood as the subfloor and nailing / glue surface for your flooring. Run the sheets of plywood perpendicular to the sheets of foam board, and seal the edges and joints carefully with DAP 230. If there is any possibility of water leakage in your basement, however, install DriCore panels instead of XPS on the floor. DriCore has a rubber layer on the bottom to block water / vapor, with channels that leaks can flow through to reach a drain or sump pump. Look for: DRIcore Model # CDGNUS750024024 Internet # 202268752 Store SKU # 361018 Seal all of the joints and edges of the DriCore panels with DAP 230. If you have enough head room, add a 1" layer of XPS foam board on top for insulation, followed by plywood. As you can see, sealing out water vapor and air leaks is as important as the layer of insulation -- a key point people often overlook. I hope this is helpful. Mark

Is this soundproof?

How soundproof is this?
Asked by: Judeth
Dear Judeth: As other replies have noted, Reflectix provides no sound proofing. Home Depot sells Roxul rock wool, however, which much denser than fiberglass and offers very effective sound reduction. See: Roxul Safe'nSound, HD Model # RXSS31525 Internet # 202531875 Store SKU # 982937 We use Roxul to firestop basements walls and stairs; it molds kind of like clay and stays where to put it. Very easy to install. If a board-like product would be better for your application, Roxul also makes a board version called RockBoard. It provides the same level of insulation, R4 per inch, and similar sound proofing. You can order it from your Home Depot's Customer Service or Pro desk. Ask for Roxul Rockboard 60, which is available with a white poly or foil facing, which makes it easy to clean. I hope this is helpful. Mark

Is anyone here has used Reflectix insulation as insulation and vapor varrier under an area rug in a basement floor?
Asked by: Gigi
No our product is not made to walk on it will not give you a R value of any kind. Our product works off reflectivity if it is sandwiched or touching anything our product works off reflectivity it must be able to reflect.
