Cool roofing is known to be very affordable overall, with energy savings ranging from 7%-15% of total cooling costs.

Quality Metals cool roof require little to no maintenance. Also, cool roofs typically have a longer lifespan than conventional roofing systems, lowering overall maintenance costs and extending roof life.

The “coolness” of a roof can be determined by comparing two factors: solar reflectance and thermal emittance. Metal roofs, one of the most popular roofing materials used today, can achieve a solar reflectance of over 70%, allowing buildings to remain much cooler and lowering their energy costs. Metal is also extremely durable and weather-resistant, lightweight, and 100% recyclable at the end of its useful life.
