Did you know that cool roofing products remain 50-60 degrees F cooler than traditional roofing materials during hot weather? Traditional roofs absorb 85-95% of the solar energy they receive. This translates to a roof surface temperatures of 150 185 degrees F on a hot summer day. This heat builds up during the daytime hours, baking the materials of your roof and heating the interior of the structure below, raising your cooling costs. In contrast, a cool roof would reach a peak temperature of 110-115 degrees F on that same hot summer day. These reduced surface temperatures from cool roofs can lower air temperature, not only in your building, but throughout the community.

A cool roofing system is constructed with roofing products that have high solar reflectance and thermal emittance properties. These work by reflecting solar and thermal rays from the sun back into the atmosphere rather than allowing it to be absorbed into the roofs surface. The roof literally stays cooler and reduces the amount of heat transferred to the building below, keeping the building a cooler and more constant temperature. We do custom designed cool roofs for commercial and government buildings. Call us today for a free roofing consultation.

Cool roofing products come in a wide variety of materials. From surface granules and coatings on shingle, metal, or tile to a wide variety of low-slope, membrane, and roof coatings manufacturers are developing more advanced products to meet the needs of building owners. While the most common color for a commercial or industrial cool roof is white, there are many cool color products which use darker-colored pigments that are highly reflective as well. With cool color technologies there are cool roofs that come in a wide variety of colors and still maintain a high solar reflectance.

Cool roofs have been shown to significantly lower energy costs, reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, and improve human health and comfort. A cool roof transfers less heat into the building below, meaning the building can maintain a constant temperature with less energy use. This energy savings is most evident for commercial and industrial building owners, as cool roofing helps reduce energy usage during peak demand periods.

The building is in a climate with hot and sunny weather during at least part of the year (80F or hotter weather with clear skies for at least three months of the year)

Significant cooling energy is used 3 or more months of the year

The duct system is in the attic or plenum space

There are problems maintaining indoor comfort in the summer (if air conditioning equipment cannot maintain the desired temperature, or without air conditioning, if indoor temperatures exceed 80F)

The roof accounts for much of the buildings envelope (i.e., the roof area equals or exceeds one-fourth of the buildings exterior surface area, calculated as the walls plus the roof)

The roof materials tend to crack and age prematurely from sun damage (if damage begins before the warranty period or the roof life ends).
