Default Radiant heat barrier ???

Dear Friends,
With my SECO bill came an article on an attic insulation:
RADIANT HEAT BARRIER:

Has anyone had any experience with this ? Good or Bad ?

We installed it in our designer when it was built 4 years ago. Garage and lanai are cooler and AC costs seems reasonable. (Nothing to compare costs with as the house always had the radiant barrier.)

Considering installing at our CYV, the jury is still out.

Sounds Good- We have a Designer & should cut power usage big time-

Default Radiant heat Barrier

Just had a representative from Radiant Heat barrier come and estimate the job on our house. Its a Patio Villa. The return on investment is estimated to be 3 -4 years which seems pretty good. I am very interested just wondering if anyone has had it done . Its $ .75 a square foot if you are a Seco customer. Any info would be appreciated.
