General Tips:
- First things first. Think safety and use common sense when working on ladders or in attic spaces. Drywall is not strong enough to hold your weight and a missplaced foot will quickly find its way into the living area of your house.
- Consider unrolling the Radiant Barrier and cutting it into shorter lengths on solid ground. The smaller, lighter pieces are easier to manage in a tight attic space.
- Be careful when working around electrical lines and power cords as aluminum conducts electricity. Keep your eyes open for exposed wiring or uncapped electrical boxes.
