Cool Roof

A cool roof is designed to reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat compared to traditional roofing. This keeps buildings cooler, reducing the need for energy-draining air conditioning and offering a host of benefits for both the environment and property owners.

Looking for a roofing option that’s not only durable but also eco-conscious? A Cool Roof might be just what you need. At Jersey Eco Roofing, we offer cool roof installations and upgrades as part of our commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency. Here’s why a cool roof could be the perfect addition to your home or business:

Energy Savings

By reflecting sunlight and staying cooler, cool roofs reduce the need for air conditioning, lowering your energy bills and decreasing your building’s energy consumption.

Eco-Friendly Impact

Less energy consumption means lower fossil fuel use, helping reduce harmful emissions and combating global warming. Every cool roof installed is a step toward a healthier planet.

Improved Comfort & Safety

In buildings without air conditioning, cool roofs make a huge difference, keeping the interior temperature down and making the space more comfortable and safe during hot weather.

Cool Roof Materials

Cool roofs can be made from various materials such as shingles, tiles, wood, and metal. Some materials, like asphalt, concrete, and darker clay, can be enhanced with a special reflective coating to optimize their cooling performance. The key factor to look for is the roof’s solar reflectance, or albedo—the higher it is, the cooler your roof stays.

Climate Considerations

While cool roofs offer numerous advantages, it’s essential to consider your local climate before installation. For example, cool roofs are ideal in sunny, hot regions but may not be as beneficial in areas that rely on high rainfall. Our team will help you evaluate your options to ensure the best solution for your building’s needs.
