Another project we've been working on is installing a radiant barrier as our first line of defense against the radiant heat that makes it through the roof. Radiant barriers on average reduce heat gain by 40%, and reduce your heating & cooling bill by around 17%. Once it's installed it is virtually maintenance free for the life of the product... which can be many decades. Maneuvering in an attic is simple, but challenging... unless you are about 5 feet tall or less. Our teenage work crew loved this project, especially since they got to climb around the trusses like a jungle gym for several hours 😀
