eShield FAQ

Q: Why don’t building codes specify E-values as well as R-values?

A: In the last century, the only cost-effective insulation for the home was mass insulation like fiberglass, cellulose and foam that reduced heat transfer by convection and conduction. The “R-value” was the measure of how good a job those insulators did. Yet R-value measures only the smallest part of residential heat transfer. E-value is the measure of emissivity, radiant heat transfer, the principle source of energy loss. New technologies make it practical to achieve extremely low emissivity in window glass and in a reflective film ideal for the attic. As these low-E technologies advance, the codes will catch up and E-value will replace R-value as the primary measure of energy efficiency.

Q: Will eShield™ installed in my attic trap mildew-causing moisture in my ceiling?

A: eShield™ is perforated to allow vapor to escape the housing envelope – it will not contribute to mildew growth in your home.

Q: Will eShield™ create a fire hazard in my attic?

A: eShield™ Attic Energy Barrier is fire-resistant – it’s less combustible than the structure to which it attaches. Of course, like almost any material, it will melt and eventually burn if exposed to an open flame.

Q: Can I get a rebate for installing eShield™?

A: eShield™ Attic Energy Barrier is Department of Energy approved and bears the Energystar® mark. This is the gold standard in energy efficiency and qualifies for most federal, state and energy company rebates. Check with your eShield™ rep to learn what’s available in your area.

TESTIMONIALS

	We installed eShield last fall. Our gas bill was significantly less this past winter. Now that it’s summer and we’re running the AC, we’re saving even more on electricity. – Martin Drake Denver, CO		Our heating and cooling bills were unbelievable. We thought about adding more regular insulation but it would have cost a fortune, and still wouldn’t have made much difference. eShield has brought our energy bills under control and will pay for itself much faster. – John Stephanopolis Roswell, GA
	The installation was complete in one day, and there was a big drop on the next power bill. eShield is a great investment. I’m having it installed in my Mom’s house. – Margaret Freeman Atlanta, GA		It was hard to believe that a radiant barrier could be more effective than fiberglass, but we saw the difference on our kitchen table. Now we’re seeing it in our utility bills. – Mike Peterson Bethesda, MD
