Air leaks are often sealed with spray foam insulation or a similar product. There are other great air barrier options that reduce air leaks and reduce heat transfer, making insulation more effective. Our team uses SkyFlex air barrier on many projects, with great results.
SkyFlex air barrier is designed for use in residential building applications as well as for commercial use. It’s strong and flexible, made of two layers of aluminum foil laminated to a layer of woven polyethylene. SkyFlex’s exterior layers reduce radiant heat transfer in enclosed air spaces in building cavities like crawl spaces, knee walls and other similar spaces.
In addition to being an air barrier, SkyFlex also works as an insulating layer, adding R-Value to building envelope.
