Radiant barrier paint
I bought two kits of Heatbloc Ultra for the house. I know it's not technically a radiant "barrier" but there is no way I can do the foil in my attic. My research showed that the Heatbloc Ultra performs better than the rest. I have been trying to make my 1967 house more energy efficient and this is the next step. Any tips? I plan to spray the rafters and both eves on the sides. I have the sprayer. Gotta get the mask etc. Anyone done this before? Do I need to keep the dogs outside? Two person job? Thanks for any help. Plan to get this done Thursday and blow the insulation in Saturday. Attic will be done after that. Already replaced most of my attic ducts with the new R6 flex and tried to seal everything up.
I will be using a Titan 640 sprayer. It has a .17 tip. Heatblocs web site says between a .17 to .21. Will the .17 be fine or should I bump it up? I plan on buying an extension for the gun. Should I get a 24" or 30"?
