Crawl Spaces
Radiant Barrier & Reflective Insulation for Crawl Spaces
Crawl spaces without proper insulation can cause temperature fluctuations in your home, leading to discomfort and higher energy costs. In summer, excess heat can seep in, while in winter, valuable warmth escapes—making your HVAC system work harder. Installing Reflecta Double Bubble (Foil/Foil) Reflective Insulation creates a protective layer that helps regulate temperatures by blocking radiant heat transfer.
Beyond its thermal benefits, this insulation also serves as a moisture barrier, reducing humidity levels and preventing mold and mildew growth. With proper insulation, you can maintain a more energy-efficient and comfortable home throughout the year.
Key Advantages:
✔ Lowers heating and cooling expenses
✔ Protects against moisture, mold, and mildew
✔ Helps stabilize indoor temperatures for year-round comfort

Why Use Radiant Barriers & Reflective Insulation in Crawl Spaces?
Crawl spaces are prone to temperature fluctuations and moisture buildup, which can impact a home's energy efficiency and indoor air quality. The Double Bubble (Foil/Foil) Reflective Insulation acts as both a heat reflector and a moisture barrier, helping to maintain stable temperatures year-round. By preventing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, it reduces energy consumption and lowers utility costs. Additionally, its moisture-resistant design helps prevent mold growth, wood rot, and structural damage, making it an excellent choice for damp environments. Whether for new construction or retrofitting, this insulation provides long-lasting benefits for a healthier, more energy-efficient home.
Radiant Barriers, Reflective Insulation, and Home Health
The condition of your crawl space plays a crucial role in the overall health of your home. Poor insulation and moisture accumulation in crawl spaces can lead to the growth of mold, mildew, and attract pests, all of which negatively affect both your home’s structure and indoor air quality. The Reflecta Double Bubble (Foil/Foil) Reflective Insulation helps solve this problem by improving energy efficiency while also offering protection against moisture infiltration. By keeping your crawl space dry, it prevents the growth of mold and mildew, reducing potential respiratory issues and allergies for your family. Furthermore, it helps protect your home’s foundation and wooden structures from long-term damage, thereby extending the life and value of your home. Using a radiant barrier in your crawl space is a key step towards ensuring a healthy, safe, and comfortable living environment.
