# Low-E Insulation: Energy Efficiency & Ever-Changing Building Codes
> Join Jeb Beard as he dives into the science behind Low-E insulation and how it plays a crucial role in energy efficiency and adapting to evolving building codes.
Join Jeb Beard as he dives into the science behind Low-E insulation and how it plays a crucial role in energy efficiency and adapting to evolving building codes. From understanding heat transfer types to decoding R-values and emissivity, this presentation walks you through the differences between radiant barriers and reflective insulation—and why those differences matter in real-world building applications. Learn about made-in-America solutions like Thermo-Sheath and Low-E House Wrap that combine performance and simplicity for modern construction.
## What you'll learn
* The science of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiant heat
* Understanding R-values and the concept of emissivity
* Differences between radiant barriers and reflective insulation
* The functionality and benefits of Thermo-Sheath and Low-E House Wrap
* How Low-E insulation helps meet changing building codes and efficiency goals
