Highly Reflective Tiles Cool Roof

1 according to the cool roof rating council cool roofs may save homeowners an average of 7 15 on their total cooling costs.

Highly reflective tiles cool roof. It has devised a special process of glazing that makes the tiles reflect most of the solar heat. Infrared radiation is a spectrum of light that generates significant amounts of heat on roof surfaces. Cool roofs can be made of a highly reflective type of paint a sheet covering or highly reflective tiles or shingles. Welcome to ssm solar reflective ceramic tiles cool roofs are highly reflective and emissive materials that stay 7 to 8 degrees centigrade f cooler in the summer sun thereby reducing energy costs improving occupant comfort cutting maintenance costs increasing the life cycle of the roof and contributing to the reduction of urban heat islands and associated smog.

Energy star certified roof products reflect more of the sun s rays. Energy star certified roof products can help reduce the amount of air conditioning needed in buildings and can reduce peak cooling demand by 10 15 percent. This results in lower absorption of solar heat and a cooler roof. Roof temperature is rated via solar reflectance and thermal emittance with ratings ranging between 0 and 1.

1 a cool roof minimizes the solar heat gain of a building by reflecting incoming sun rays and re emitting the absorbed energy. The solar reflectance sr and the thermal emittance te are both rated on a scale from 0 to 1 the closer the number is to 1 the higher its reflectivity is towards the sun. Cool roof tile products exist for virtually every kind of roof. Standard or dark roofs can reach temperatures of 150 f or more in the summer sun.

This can lower roof surface temperature by up to 50f decreasing the amount of heat transferred into a building. Cool roof and wall tiles endura cool roof and wall tiles reflects sun rays thereby help keep the inside temperature cool and also save energy. Our highly reflective shingles can help to reduce temperatures in your attic so your home will stay cooler in the summer to help save on air conditioning costs. To help reduce the heat island affect created by the dark densely place urban roofs which contributes to global warming tile tech has developed the cool roof series roof pavers.

Solar reflective cool roof pavers are ideal for creating functional and attractive rooftop terraces balconies and plazas. Our cool roof pavers utilize a high reflective value and low emissivity rate resulting in a high solar reflectance index sri value. A cool roof under the same conditions could stay more than 50 f cooler and save energy and money by using less air conditioning. Each cool roof tile regardless of color has two basic characteristics that determine its coolness on a roof.

How solar reflective roofing works whereas darker traditional roofing materials absorb sunlight the reflective surfaces of a cool roof reflect it away.
