  3. Origin of a Great Idea • 1982 • TAMU student • Moving

  4. Problem • Attic temp heats and cools entire house • Acts like a blast furnace during summer

  5. Problem • Must control attic temp! • Insulate? • Keep heat out during summer cool inside • Keep cold out during winter warmth inside • Save money thru energy savings • Save ozone layer? • Help eliminate green house gases

  6. Origin of a Great Idea • Now that I know about the problem, how can it be fixed?

  7. A Great Idea Stalls • 1983 – Patent search • 1932 – Conflict

  8. A Great Idea Revisited • 2002 • Surely there has to be a way to reach the goal!

  9. A Great Idea Reborn • August 2005 • Patent issued for hail damage prevention AND • insulation • sound barrier • mold and fungus retardation • fire retardation

  10. All testing preformed following UL and ASTM specifications. All labs UL and ASTM certified.

  11. Tests Conducted • ASTM E84-04 Fire spread test • Omega Point Labs: San Antonio, Texas • ASTM 1363-97 Thermal Test (R-factor) test • Architectural Testing: St. Paul Minn. • ASTM E90-04 Sound Transmission Loss Test • Acoustics Systems: Austin , Texas • UL 2218 Class 4 hail impact test • Architectural Testing: Southlake, Texas • ASTM D3273-94, ASTMD3273-82T Mold and Mildew Resistance • Progressive Coatings: Jacksonville FL.

  12. Insulation • 4 times the R-factor of fiberglass • Reflects 98% of applied heat • Stops heat-to-cold loss by 98% • 6 dead air zones • 7 reflective layers • Less expensive than fiberglass • Easy installation

  13. Temperature directly under shingles – 222º

  14. Temperature under TruProtect – 108º

  15. Hail Damage Protection • Pads hail impact. • Cushions to prevent structure damage. • Tests indicate 50% less surface damage. • Tests indicate 100 % less structure damage. • Trampoline-like effect on hail stones.

  16. Side by Side Class 4 Hail Impact Test

  17. Impact Spots for Test

  18. Noise Barrier • 9 noise reflector surfaces • 6 dead air zones • Combines to naturally soften noise. • Highest STC number for ½″ material • Weighs 8oz. per square foot

  19. Sound Transmission Loss Test

  20. Sound Chamber with TruProtect in Place

  21. Protection from Mold and Fungus • No toxic chemicals • Stops Black mold and fungal growth from developing • Stops airborne allergens from these • Healthier life style.

  22. Fire Protection • Class A fire rating • Class A smoke rating • Tested at 1860o F • Buys escape time to save lives. • If a fire does develop, slows progression

  23. Fire Test Tunnel

  24. After 10 Minutes in 1860º Tunnel

  26. Installation • Can be cut with a knife or saw. • Requires no protective clothing. • No toxic particles emitted.

  27. Most houses plywood decking rafters asphalt saturated felt or tar paper shingles
