energy loads by 30
percent, combats
global warming,
and decreases roof
maintenance costs.
This miracle roof can meet all your expectations for comfort,
cost and aesthetics and it is not some product from the future—it
is a cool roof.
Technological advancements and ecological awareness have
evolved cool roof materials from the flat, white roofs of
yesterday to the myriad colors, materials, and profiles of today.
Because they are so versatile, cool roofs can be applied to all
styles of projects, from pitched residential to flat commercial roofs.
Innovative technologies are pushing the “building” envelope with
cool roofs that self-clean, change color accordingly to
the temperature, or are holographic, bringing countless
design options to an architect’s table.
The extent of the energy benefits to be gained from
cool roofing correlates to the building’s location, type
and use, as well as to the specific radiative
properties of theselected roofing product.
Fortunately, there is a broad range of locations in which
cool roofs are proving to be a viable energy efficiency
measure.
Simply put, cool roofs are roofing products that integrate
materials with greater spectral reflectance than their traditional,
noncool counterparts, and thereby minimize the transfer of heat
to the building below. this is true for a broad range of product
types, colors, textures and roof slope applications
