Abstract

The building insulation system includes a reflective, non-porous bag filled with thermal insulation material. The covering of the bag is made from reflective polymeric facer or plastic, which facilitates reflection of thermal energy radiation. The reflective non-porous bag provides a thermal barrier for conduction, convection and radiation aspects of thermal energy transfer.

Claims (24)

1 . A building insulation system, comprising at least one bag having:

a reflective, non-porous single ply outer covering disposed over the entire bag;

only one type of insulation material disposed inside the at least one bag, whereby, the bag provides a thermal barrier for conduction, radiation and convection factors of thermal energy transfer;

a pair of adjacent studs in a building; and

the at least one bag installed between the pair of adjacent studs, wherein the non-porous integrity of the at least one bag is maintained.

2 . The building insulation system according to claim 1 , wherein said non-porous outer covering comprises reflective polymeric plastic material for reflecting thermal energy.

3 . The building insulation system according to claim 2 , wherein said reflective polymeric plastic material comprises polymeric sheet material with reflective metal mixed therein.

4 . The building insulation system according to claim 1 , wherein said insulation material comprises at least one material selected from a group consisting of fiberglass, cellulose, rockwool, expanded polystyrene, and recycled materials.

5 . The building insulation system according to claim 2 further comprising a wrap for capping a cut end of said bag.

6 . The building insulation system according to claim 5 , further comprising at least one adhesive strip for sealing said wrap around said cut end of said bag.

7 . The building insulation system according to claim 1 , wherein said non-porous outer covering comprises reflective polymeric plastic material for reflecting thermal energy, the system further comprising a cover flange surrounding a periphery of said bag, the cover flange being adapted for covering adjacent studs, headers and footers of a wall frame to thereby provide a moisture/vapor barrier.

8 . The building insulation system of claim 1 further comprising an angled wrap.

9 . The building insulation system of claim 1 wherein the covering has a cut line.

10 . A building insulation system, comprising:

a pair of adjacent studs in a building;

a bag having a reflective, non-porous outer covering comprised of a polymeric sheet having a reflective material mixed therein;

insulation material disposed within the bag; and

the bag positioned between the pair adjacent studs while maintaining the non-porous outer covering.

11 . The building insulation system of claim 7 wherein the cover flange is a separate sheet attached to a face of the bag.

12 . A building insulation system, comprising:

a pair of adjacent studs in a building;

a non-porous bag installed between the pair of adjacent studs;

the non-porous bag comprised of a polymeric sheet having a reflective material mixed therein, wherein the bag is non-porous integrity of the bag maintained; and

only one type of insulation material disposed within the reflective bag, wherein the reflective bag provides a thermal barrier for conduction, radiation and convection factors of thermal energy transfer.
