Reflect the Heat White roofing products have been on the market for decades, but ask most roofers about roofs and they will talk about hot tar or rubber
A white roof can provide numerous benefits to a facility including:
Energy Savings According to the EPA, white roofs can save residents and building owners 20-70% in annual cooling energy use. These products reduce heat transfer to the indoors, lowering air conditioning costs.
Reduced Urban Heat Island Effect White roof systems with high reflectance and emittance stay up to 70F cooler than traditional materials during peak summer weather
Lower Life Cycle Costs With the low repair and maintenance costs of a PVC based roofing material, combined with the added energy savings, it is easy to see how PVC roofs have lower life cycle costs. |
