Radiant barriers are installed in buildings to reduce summer heat gain and winter heat loss. In new buildings‚ you can select foil-faced wood products for your roof sheathing (installed with the foil facing down into the attic) or other locations to provide the radiant barrier as an integral part of the structure. For existing buildings‚ the radiant barrier is typically fastened across the bottom of joists‚ as shown in this drawing. All radiant barriers must have a low emittance (0.1 or less) and

Loft insulation Loft insulation is needed to save heat energy and contain it within the building. It reduces heat because hot air is lighter than cool air therefore hot air rises. Therefore the hot air that rises will stay at the top. Meanwhile the air below begins to gain heat and in turn rises while the hot air above loses heat and falls. This cycle is called convection. Loft insulation acts like a blanket‚ helping prevent heat escaping through the roof. Insulating your home isn’t a one

The building material with the lowest pH would be the best building material because while 7 is neutral anything below 7 is considered acidic and anything higher than 7 results in a base. Precipitation of 5.5 or lower is considered acid rain. Connecticut and most of the United States have to
