Using Radiant Heat Barriers to Manage Heat Gain, Increase Building Occupant Comfort, and Reduce Energy Costs

There are 3 modes of heat transfer: conductive, convective, & radiant. Radiant Heat Gain (RHG) accounts for significant increases in energy use and impacts building occupant comfort. The use of Radiant Heat Barriers in specific project types can reduce RHG by up to 80% or more improving building performance in both categories. This presentation will provide insight into the science and the solutions.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Understand Radiant Heat Transfer and how it effects Building Occupant Comfort & Energy Costs.
  • Compare various types of Radiant Heat Barriers identifying characteristics that make them suitable for specific projects.
  • Identify the three (3) modes of Heat Transfer.
  • Understand how Radiant Heat Barriers can be used to block a significant portion of Radiant Heat.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered via webinar or face-to-face presentation. Available sessions shown below.
