In addition, surface oxidation, dust accumulation, condensation, and other factors that change the condition of the low-erittance surface can reduce the thermal effectiveness of these insulation systems (Hooper and Moroz 1952). Deteriora- tion results from contact with several types of solutions, either acidic or basic (e.g, wel cement mortar of the preservatives found in decay-resistant lumber), Polluted environments may cause rapid and severe material degradation. However, site inspections show a predominance of well-preserved installations and only 2 small umber of cases in which apid and severe dete ovation has occurred, An extensive review of the reflective building insulation system performance literature is provided by Goss ad Miller (1989), CALCULATING OVERALL THERMAL RESISTANCES Relatively small, highly conductive elements in an insulating layer ealed thermal bridges can substantially reduce the average {hesmal resistence of @ component.

Thus, whea storm sash is added over another fenestration produc, use the values given for the nonstorm product To estimate the overall U-factor of a fenestration product that difes significantly from the assumptions given in Table + and/or Figure 4, first determine the area that is frame/sash, center-f- lass, and edge-of-plass (based on a 2-2 in. band around the perimeter of each glazing unit), Next, determine the appropriate component U-futors. These can be taken either from the standard, ‘values listed in tales in Table 4 for glass, from the values in Table |Hfor frames, oF from some other source such as test data or com puted factors.
