Shelter Valley sees real winters along with hot summers. We push to R-49 minimum in attics, pay close attention to crawl space rim joists for freeze protection, and use mineral wool on exterior assemblies that see freeze-thaw cycles.. Backcountry radiant barrier is sometimes useful on south-facing roof decks in Ramona and Pine Valley where afternoon sun loads are heavy.

No. Radiant barrier handles the radiant component of attic heat. Insulation handles the conductive component. Each does a different job. In a hot inland attic the combination is what matters — barrier on the rafters, insulation on the floor.

Less than inland. Coastal homes — Encinitas, Carlsbad, Imperial Beach — usually do not see attic temps high enough to make radiant barrier the highest-return move. We will tell you whether to skip it on the coast.
