REYNOLDS METALLATION
ADVANTAGES OF METALLATION
- -Reynolds Metallation isjoright. polished
sheet aluminum foil cemented to one or both sides of a tough Kraft paper. Rey nolds Metallation reflects approximately 95 per cent of all radiated heat that strikes its exposed metal surface. Because of its low emissivity, it absorbs only about 5 per cent of the heat striking it.
Metallation's negligible heat storage capacity, is of particular importance when Metallation is used to insulate building walls, roofs or attics for summer cooling. This means that no heat is stored up in the insulation to be released into the rooms after the heat of the day has passed.
High efficiency (see table on facing page). Low cost. Used by U. S.'Government, leading architects and engineers. Easy to apply. Metallation gives permanent in sulating efficiency. Will not corrode or tarnish. Low in weight and bulk. Im pervious to moisture. Will not support combustion. Odorless and clean. No setting, warping or disintegration.
WHERE TO BUY METALLATION
Metallation is sold by leading lumber and building material dealers throughout the United States. Reynolds trained sales representatives are at your service on all unusual insulation problems.
