The objective of this work is to compare alternative methods of reducing heat loss rates from floors to crawl spaces. The heat loss rate to the crawl space of a building is calculated without any insulation, with a radiation barrier, with glass fiber insulation, and with foil-faced glass fiber insulation. Radiant barriers prove to be an effective means of reducing heat losses to crawl spaces.
