Default Bubble wrap for insulation

Perhaps, but bubble wrap has probably not been tested for heat and fire
resistance. I would be concerned to create a fire and smoke hazard right
at my door...

"Someone" makes some "bublewrap" that is also a raidaton shied in that it
has a layer or two of reflector maerial. I wanted to use it to cover
some exposed HVAC ducts and the manufacturer's folks said it was OK.


I've used that stuff for my heater closet. Insulated the closet and helped
with the noise. But it wasn't transparent.
