What Is A Cool Roof?
• A roof that reflects the sun’s heat and releases absorbed heat back into the atmosphere.
• The roof surface temperature is usually only slightly higher than the air temperature.
Benefits of Cool Roofs Include:
• Increased occupant comfort, especially during hot summer months.
• Reduced HVAC system use, resulting in energy savings.
• Reduction in Heat Island Effect and smog.
• Compliance with code and green building programs.
• Peak energy savings and electrical grid stability.
No Disruption To Occupants. There is no need to close your building during
installation. The non-toxic formulation means
no disruption to employees and no interruption
of your business. Coatings can be reapplied to continuously refresh the roof without tearing off existing roofing.
The formulations
of UNIFLEX Fluid Applied Roofing Systems do not
require hot kettles or flames during installation.
It’s a safer process and the environmental benefits
are significant.
Longer Building Life Cycle. Fluid
Applied Roofing Systems are installed onto existing
roofs to extend the service life of the facility. Our roofing systems resist blistering, chalking, checking, cracking and flaking — protecting the roof from further
weathering and degradation.
Significant Energy Savings. According to
EnergyStar.gov, having a white, reflective roof
reduces the roof’s surface temperature by
up to 100 °F, significantly decreasing the
amount of heat transferred into the building
and reducing peak cooling demands. Higher
reflectivity = lower energy consumption and lower
cooling costs.
Cost-Saving Installation. Our Applied
Roofing Systems are typically easier to install and
maintain than a conventional tear-off roof and also
eliminate unnecessary construction waste.
This means such projects generally cost
a fraction of the price of a new roof installation.
Tax Benefits. Fluid applied roofing qualifies
as maintenance and that’s important: roof
maintenance projects are often tax deductible
the same year, while replacements are not.
Utility Rebates. Some utility companies offer
rebates to building owners who conserve energy by
using white reflective roof coatings. Contact your
electric utility provider for energy rebate offers.
