SOLAR STAR® Suppress Heat Build Up:
Suppress Heat Build Up
A hot attic acts like a giant radiator, transferring heat into your living spaces, sending both
utility bills and temperatures soaring. In colder climates, heat build-up in an attic causes snow
to melt and run down where it freezes at the eaves, causing destructive ice damming.
Battle Moisture
Many of today's houses have insufficient ventilation and attic air exchange. This causes
high humidity levels from everyday activities. This moisture migrates through the ceiling
towards the roof where it comes in contact with the cold structure. Here, ice and frost
form, causing damage to your roof structure. Additionally, moisture can saturate insulation,
promote fungal decay and plywood delamination.
