| In’flector Radiant Barrier - See Through Window Insulator. |
|
NASA developed Reflective Foil Radiant Barrier for space travel. Now, there is a new breakthrough in radiant barrier technology: See-through radiant barriers for your windows. Removable, reversible, In’Flector® see-through radiant heat barrier window insulators address all of the seasonal changes throughout the year, keeping the heat in the building during the winter, while keeping the heat out during the summer. In’Flector window insulation barriers are:
- Easy to fit and remove
- Cost effective
- Good looking
- Durable
- A substantial contribution to reducing carbon emissions
- A permanent Solution for High Energy Bills

| Winter Benefits |
| In the winter the In’Flector® window insulators are placed so that the silver side (aluminium) is facing inward, reflecting the thermal heat back into the building The black side of the In’Flector® faces outward and acts as a passive solar collector absorbing the suns rays and radiating the heat inward. |
- Reduces heat loss through windows
- Takes advantage of the sun’s natural heating energy - as an example, a 1.2m X 1.2m window in direct sunlight can produce 2096BTU’s of heat per hour, which is equivalent to a 600 watt electric heater!
- Damaging UV rays are reflected back outside
- Reduces the load, wear, & maintenance on heating and ventilation units.
- Reduces heating requirements and energy consumption which saves carbon emissions and money

 |
| Summer Benefits |
In the summer the In’Flector® window insulators are turned so that the silver side faces out.
|
- Reflects radiant heat back out through the window
- Prevents a home or office from heating up like a greenhouse
- Reflects damaging UV rays back out through the windows
- Reduces fading & sun damage
- Controls glare (especially for computers & televisions)
- Provides daytime privacy (one way vision)
- Provides cool day lighting with a view
- Reduces the load, wear, & maintenance on heating and ventilation units.
- Reduces cooling requirements which reduces energy consumption, saving carbon emissions and money.

In’Flector® has been independently tested.
|
| In’Flector® window insulators have been proven to make a significant improvement in the insulation value of your windows. These simple tests show how. The In’Flector® insulator is the most effective system available to address the least energy-efficient part of your building: the window. It has been proven that the windows are the weakest link in the insulation value of your property. The reason is glass - losing valuable heat through conduction, convection and drafts. |

WHO?
Texas A&M University Department of Construction Science under the guidance of Keith Sylvester, Ph.D,
WHAT?
From a 2002 report titled “Effects of the In’Flector® Solar Screens on the Thermal Properties of Windows”
RESULTS:
“the heat gain attributed to the windows of a building using the In’Flector® solar glazing will be significantly reduced…” “Specifically, the U value of the glazing improved by an average of 54% for the winter condition and 50% for the summer condition.”

WHAT?
Air leakage/infiltration
RESULTS:
In’Flector® Radiant Barrier Window Insulators in a controlled test “substantially
reduces the air leakage through the windows by 64.8% to 71%. In’Flector® panels provide a
good air-seal.”

WHAT?
Windows at the National Defense Medical Center tested before and after fitting In’Flector® Window Insulators.
RESULTS:
In’Flector® Window Insulators “address a major concern of good envelopinginfiltration
and air leakage”.

WHO?
Yellot Solar Laboratories
WHAT?
In’Flector® was tested using ASHRAE Standard Number 74-73 at the Yellot Solar Energy Laboratory.
RESULTS:
“A four foot square window (with In’Flector Insulators in the winter configuration)
would have a heat gain of 2096Btu/hr, which is equivalent to a 600 watt electric heater.”

WHO?
Ortech Laboratories
WHAT?
Ortech Laboratories did an extensive test using accepted and proved methodologies
RESULTS:
“Under daytime summer solar gain conditions the In’Flector® panel had the effect
of reducing the solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) of the window by 49%. Under night time
winter thermal conditions the In’Flector® insulator panels had the effect of reducing the
thermal transmittance coefficient of the window by 37%”
