Low-E House Wrap is a new product manufactured by Environmentally Safe Products, Inc., the makers of Low-E reflective insulation.

It is 99.4% pure aluminum foil faced underlayment for use with vinyl siding. This pure aluminum face acts as a radiant barrier on your home, blocking up to 97% of the suns radiant energy.

This accounts for up to 93% of the summer heat gain in your home. It also keeps the heat in your home in the winter.

It works similar to the glass lined Thermos® bottle, which as you know can keep items hot or cold for long periods of time.

So Why Use Low-E House Wrap?

  • Adds a radiant barrier to your home, which blocks up to 97% of the sun's radiant energy (remember this accounts for up to 93% of summer heat gain and guess what, conventional insulations do absolutely nothing to stop radiant energy, they only slow it down). It also helps retain heat in the winter.
  • Reduces drafts in your home by effectively sealing exterior wall leaks.
  • Raises system R-value.
  • Deadens sound.
  • Has a Class A/Class 1 fire rating.
  • Material is easy to install. It can be applied directly over OSB or plywood in new construction, or directly over your old siding in retrofit applications. It is installed in minutes with a razor knife and staple gun. Contractors like it because it saves them time and money with installation.
  • Best of all it is non-toxic and hypo-allergenic.
  • Flexibility and durability are unsurpassed, allowing for tight corner wraps without tearing or reinforcement and no folds or pieces to fit together.

Note: Testing by an ASTM accredited lab determined that the use of Low-E House Wrap
did not cause warping of the siding to occur, unlike other foil faced products,
Low-E House Wrap is coated with 99% pure aluminum which prevents heat buildup.
