About Brian McElroy Expertise I am a home builder in the Tampa Florida area specializing in energy-efficient homes built with precast concrete wall systems that are hurricane resistant to 235 mph. I have researched and used many methods of new home construction and find this the most cost-effective, environmentally-friendly method of home building for this area. I am also investigating other alternative methods to improve my products. I am a member of the Florida Green Build Coalition, EPA Energy Star Program, and have other affiliations involving energy savings, safe building practices and quality construction practices

Question I want to increase the insulation in my attic and have looked at a tri-laminated aluminum mylar insulation produce that is installed over your old insulation, just on the joists. What can you tell me about this type of insulation? Thank you, Mary
Answer I know nothing about it. I have never used it but in Florida, we are somewhat limited. If you want a good answer, contact your local Trane air conditioning installer or dealer. They are well versed on all types of insulation and I am sure they would be happy to discuss it. If you are in Florida, let me know and I will contact someone else that could assist you. Brian
