2. What Is a Radiant Barrier? The Turkey Analogy

3. What Is a Radiant Barrier? A radiant barrier is a layer of aluminum foil placed in an airspace to block radiant heat transfer between a heat-radiating surface (such as a hot roof) and a heat-absorbing surface (such as conventional attic insulation).
