Under Roof Radiant Heating

Heatizon s zmesh non metal roof ice melt system is a very durable 9 bronze screen heating element.

Under roof radiant heating.

Increasing summer energy consumption and cooling costs. This can result in energy savings in cooling costs up to 10. Radiant barrier has been shown to decrease ceiling heat gains by up to 42 in certain tests. The temperature of the attic space increases and that heat is transferred to the building below.

Florida solar energy center conducted a study on radiant barrier and shingle temperatures and found that the roof increased in temperature by only about 5 degrees at the hottest point of the day when the heat was entering and exiting the roof simultaneously. The radiant barrier reflects 95 of the radiant heat back to the roofing materials which then emits over 90 of the heat out the roof almost instantly. For non metal roof deicing applications zmesh is designed to be installed under shingles along eaves and up valleys where ice dams heavy snow loads and icicles on the roof may be a problem. Attics heat up when the sun s radiant energy heats the shingles and the heat is transferred to the interior attic space through the roofing materials via conduction.
