Perhaps you’ve heard about the urban heat island effect, in which urban areas are warmer than their surroundings due to human activity. This can cause significant discomfort for city residents, leading to a spike in energy consumption due to increased demand for air conditioning. Fortunately, there is a more sustainable ways to combat the heat island effect: investing in cool roofing.
Royal Roofing Construction, your leading residential roofing service provider, holds certifications from GAF and CertainTeed®, both of which offer cool roofing solutions. Read on to learn about cool roofs and how investing in this option can make your home more comfortable and greener at the same time.
Minimize discomfort from the heat island effect by heat-proofing your home. The excessive heat you’re feeling is caused in part by an inefficient roofing system, so the next time you feel too hot, the sun might not be your problem—it might be your roof.
Cool roofs differ depending on the material used, but they all share one essential characteristic: solar reflectance. Cool roofs trap heat and reflect it away from your home. If your interior feels too warm, your current roof is probably lacking this very important “ingredient.” Whether you’re in your office or your home, you shouldn’t worry because home and commercial roofing services are always there to alleviate the problem.
Don’t endure the heat especially if you can do something about it. Consider investing in a cool roof; not only will you make your home more comfortable, but you’ll also be helping the environment by reducing your carbon footprint.
