Review on Carter Professional Aluminum Foil Tape by Jacob Sampino

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best foil tape suitable for adhesive tape

Do you make a radiant barrier? This is the band you want. Thick. Easy to clean. Easy to place, it's not the super sticky and sticky kind that ruins your day by sticking to everything when you're trying to get into tight gaps. This product is fantastic. I used $8 Nashua rollers and they do a pretty good job of lifting the product and tape it in place. You can create a great radiation barrier with lots of double-sided acrylic tape and foil tape. I needed 4x 500ct 16" fiberglass rods because they tell you to space them 16" apart but we did them every 2-4" and even then the fiberglass finds a way to sag. This is insane. But we finally have underfloor heating in our house and we finally refilled for two months without propane, it used to cost us 4-5k to heat the house in the winter, I think we are reducing our heating foil bills a lot with double bubble wrap. and tons of foil. Always keep at least 3/4" gaps and you might be well on your way to healing cold floors in your house. I wish I discovered this stuff sooner, but I'll use it for the final layer and it will be muy bueno
