E-Barrier Paint
This covering contains microscopic reflective particles, which keep radiant energy from transferring in or out of a house. When applied to the underside of an uncoated roof deck, E-Barrier is designed to reflect radiant heat before it reaches the insulation or ceiling below. Maker Sherwin-Williams says E-Barrier reduces heating and cooling costs by as much as 15 percent.
