What is a cool roof?
A “cool roof” is one that has been engineered to reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat than a standard rooftop. White or light colored surfaces reflect more than half of the radiation that reaches them while dark surfaces absorb almost all of it. By characteristic, a cool roof generally features highly reflective paint, sheet coverings or highly reflective tiles or shingles. Lighter colored reflective materials on a rooftop reflect a considerable amount of light and warmer weather. duraSTRONG SR also helps to reduce cooling costs in hot weather by keeping buildings considerably cooler. Further, reducing cooling costs is good for the environment as it reduces energy usage during peak periods which ultimately lowers the strain on our electrical grid.
In short, the higher the SRI index, the cooler the roof!
