Blanket heat insulation with facing radiant barrier

A heat insulation blanket assembly for retarding the transfer of heat between adjacent spaces, comprising:

• an elongated blanket of heat insulation material having a fibrous surface,
• sheet material extending along the elongated blanket superposed the fibrous surface,
• the sheet material bearing a heat reflective surface facing the fibrous surface of the blanket,
• the fibrous surface having surface fibers in engagement with the heat reflective surface of the sheet material and the surface fibers are of a density sufficient to maintain an array of air gaps formed about at least 80% of the heat reflective surface,
• such that the air gaps maintain the reflective properties of at least 80% of the heat reflective surface of the sheet material.

A method of insulating a building structure for retarding heat transfer between spaces in and about the building structure, comprising:

• providing a blanket of heat insulation with a fibrous surface that forms air gaps over at least 80% of the fibrous surface,
• providing a sheet material having a heat reflective surface,
• placing the heat reflective surface of the sheet material in superposed relationship with the fibrous surface of the blanket,
• supporting the sheet material with the fibers of the fibrous surface of the blanket with at least 80% of the reflective material contacted with the air gaps, and
• maintaining the reflectivity of the heat reflective surface of the sheet material with air gaps between the fibers of the fibrous surface that support the sheet material.

A heat insulation blanket assembly for a building structure for retarding the transfer of heat between spaces in and about the building structure, comprising:

• an elongated blanket of fibrous material having a broad surface,
• sheet material extending along the length of the blanket superposed the broad surface, the sheet material bearing a heat reflective surface facing the broad surface of the fibrous blanket,
• the fibrous blanket having surface fibers positioned at the broad surface for engaging the heat reflective surface of the sheet material, the surface fibers being spaced from one another a distance to form an array of air gaps in contact with the reflective surface of the sheet material, a support sheet positioned on the opposite side of the blanket from the broad surface of the blanket and joined at its edges to the edges of the sheet material such that the sheet material and the support sheet surround the blanket,
• such that the surface fibers of the broad surface of the blanket support the sheet material with the air gaps between the surface fibers maintaining the reflectivity of the reflective surface of the sheet material about the surface fibers.
