White Seal Roof Coating to Lower Attic Temperatures

[AC_Hacker]

I had a friend who had more copper than common sense...

He even put a sheet of copper in back of his wood stove, over a wooden wall. On the evening that I discovered this, I was over at his house and he had a hot fire roaring in his wood stove. I was sure that he was going to set his house on fire, because everyone knows that copper is an excellent conductor not only of electricity, but of of heat. It was obvious to me that the copper and the wall were going to be painfully hot to the touch, so to prove it to myself and to him, I lightly touched the surface of the copper, and it was cool... I couldn't believe it, so I touched another area, same thing.

So I'm now using copper-tinted plastic window film on my west-side windows. Makes a big difference in the summer.
