Protect Roofing Assets Against Sun Damage, While Extending Roof Life.

Nothing damages… your roof more than the sun. Intense heat and UV rays are the leading cause of blistering, splitting and decay of traditional roofs; and that means your roof can't keep out the rain. Cool Roof Coating Systems help prevent sun-related damage, make your roofs last longer, and reduce cooling and life-cycle costs.

Cool Roof reflects the sun’s heat and damaging rays and readily emits any absorbed solar heat.
WHAT IS A COOL ROOF?
Simply put, a Cool Roof is a light-colored commercial roofing system that reflects the sun’s heat and damaging rays and readily emits any absorbed solar heat, thereby lowering the roof and building temperature and protecting the roof from sunlight degradation. The potential impact of installing a Cool Roofing System is impressive–-studies show reduced cooling energy demand in buildings by up to 50%. A Cool Roof commercial roofing system saves money, last longer with lower maintenance costs, help reduce power plant emissions, improve air quality, and cut landfill waste.
LIFE-CYCLE COST SAVINGS
Experts also add that Cool Roof energy saving roof systems and roofing materials provide additional benefits and energy savings associated with sustainability. The highly reflective and emissive quality of Cool Roof Coating System ensures a longer life than dark-colored or aluminum-coated roofs, which often fail prematurely due to sunlight exposure. For example, beyond the energy savings that allow faster payback on roof investments, Cool Roof Coating Systems based on proven acrylic technology provide superior long-lasting waterproofing and avoid costly leaks. These roofs can be periodically renewed with re-coats to last decades. A commercial Cool Roof Coating System reduces capital and operating costs for building owners and property managers.
GREATER COMFORT
The exceptional reflectivity and heat release of a Cool Roof significantly lowers roof and building temperatures, reducing overall air conditioning requirements and increasing the effectiveness of existing HVAC equipment. With a Cool Roof System, building interiors experience less pronounced temperature gradients, resulting in higher overall comfort levels, with or without air conditioning. Beyond cost savings, Cool Roofs can result in greater employee productivity, and for retailers they can mean increased customer traffic and satisfaction.
PROTECT AND EXTEND YOUR BUILDING'S LIFE
Cool Roof energy saving roof systems and roofing materials have the direct benefit of extended roof life. These reflective and emissive systems block damaging UV rays and reduce high roof surface temperatures that cause asphalt degradation. With unsurpassed waterproofing capabilities, Cool Roof Systems are much more effective than white paint alone in meeting the needs of today’s demanding low-slope commercial roofing. Performance characteristics such as adhesion, strength and stretch levels, exterior durability and resistance to soiling and discoloration are equally important in assuring building owners they have a long-lasting Cool Roof solution.
Proven Cool Roof Coating System technology applied by qualified professionals, like RoofCorp. together with a comprehensive roof management system from RoofCorp., guarantees reduced operating and capital costs and a longer, leak-free building life.
