Heat Reflective Roof

Wide arrange of colors.

Heat reflective roof. A cool roof under the same conditions could stay more than 50 f cooler and save energy and money by using less air conditioning. Infrared radiation is a spectrum of light that generates significant amounts of heat on roof surfaces. Unpainted metal roofs are naturally reflective high solar reflectance but they tend to hold heat in low emissivity so they are generally a better choice for steep roofs than for flat or low sloping roofs which receive more sunlight throughout the course of a day.

Save energy and look great at the same time. Standard or dark roofs can reach temperatures of 150 f or more in the summer sun. Black jack elasto kool 700 5 gallon elastomeric reflective roof coating 7 year limited warranty item 139929. The basic unpainted metal roof will reflect more solar radiation than an asphalt roof which absorbs and holds heat.

For pricing and availability. A high thermal emittance also plays a role particularly in climates that are warm and sunny. For homes in warmer climates pre painted or granular coated metal roofing systems reflect solar energy and cool your home by re emitting most of what solar radiation is absorbed. A reflective roof coating is applied to roofs to help reflect more sunlight from the surface thus reducing the amount of heat absorbed by the structure.

The tex cote reflect tec coating system is a revolutionary field applied infrared heat reflective coating specifically designed for metal and tile roof and wall surfaces. Also known as cool roofing these roof coatings are available in a number of colors surfaces and thicknesses and can make a huge difference when it comes to saving money on energy costs and usage. Extend the life of the roof thanks to solar reflecting granules that reduce shingle temperature and subsequently slow asphalt aging. The cool roof collection has a variety of deep colors that are unexpected of solar reflective shingles which tend to be lighter in color.

For reduced energy costs try a reflective roof coating. A high solar reflectance or albedo is the most important characteristic of a cool roof as it helps to reflect sunlight and heat away from a building reducing roof temperatures.
