Fairfax VA Attic Radiant Barrier

This homeowner in Fairfax VA wanted to find a way to reduce their energy costs to heat and cool the home year round.  Our Home Performance Expert Carl did a full inspection of the home and was able to design a project to help achieve that goal.  In addition to extending and existing bathroom vent and insulating a chimney pipe running through the attic, our Production Team installed a Radiant Barrier on the under side of the roof.  This Radiant Barrier will work to keep the external sun rays beating down on the roof from penetrating and heating up the attic.  The rest of the attic was air sealed to hold in the conditioned air made for the rooms below.  This will all help make the home more comfortable and energy efficient.
