Single bubble insulation for residential and commercial applications
This insulation product consists of 1 layer of 5/32" polyethylene bubble that is sandwiched between two metalized, low emissivity surfaces. The polyethylene encapsulated air bubbles serve as an effective thermal break as well as a vapor barrier while the two outer metalized surfaces reflect up to 96% of all radiant energy. Important - Use reflective tape to seal seams which improves performance. Compare to Double Bubble or Prodex Total Insulation.
