Reflective Roof Coatings Improve Efficiency

This color is the key to its energy efficiency.

Reflective roof coatings improve efficiency. Liquid roof coating is applied between layers of reinforced polyester fabric. The coating can go on using a roller or as a spray for large areas. White coatings are by far the most effective and reflect anywhere from 50 to 90 of the sunlight and heat that hit your roof. The coating can go on using a roller or as a spray for large areas.

Typically reflective coatings are white. They restore protect and beautify most waterproofing systems and prolong the life of almost any low slope. They also do a lot more. Highly reflective coatings which most often resemble a paintable aluminum coating come in second with reflectance levels in the 60 to 70 range.

Western colloid s reflective coatings can reflect anywhere between 76 and 84 of the sun s rays drastically reducing the heat load on your building. Reflective roof coatings are the fastest growing product segment in the fluid applied roofing market. Cool roof coatings lower energy consumption as well as meet more stringent cool roof performance requirements in the building codes. Cool roof coatings are white or special reflective pigments that reflect sunlight.

This color is the key to its energy efficiency. A highly reflective and highly emissive painted or granular coated metal roof is optimal for reducing energy consumption and can actually re emit up to 90 of absorbed solar radiation. Typically reflective coatings are white. Choose the right reflective coating for your building.

Reflective roof coatings are typically installed as part of a fluid applied reinforced roof farr system. White coatings reflect rather than absorb heat and uv rays.
