Save Money On Your Utility Bills Year After Year With A New Metal Roof!

 

When people think about metal roofs they may picture barns and shacks. These are not energy-efficient buildings. Because metal conducts heat and shines, people may believe that adding one to a home will make it more hot in summer. The truth is that the opposite is true. A metal roof is the best option for energy efficiency.

Metal roofs are designed to be roofs. A metal roof is durable and designed to be energy efficient. It can last longer than any other residential roof material and save you money on your energy bills.

Even the most basic metal roofs can reflect the sun’s rays better that asphalt shingles. You can add different colors or coatings to make low-glare metal roofs more effective at absorbing the UV radiation sent out by the sun.

Even darker metal roofs reflect up to 85% of the sun’s rays, helping homes stay cooler in the summer heat than asphalt roofs.

Different metal technologies have different degrees of reflectivity, with the best being called “Cool Roofs.” Cool Roofs are rated based on thermal emittance and reflectance. They can help to save energy by lowering roof temperatures up to 50%.

According to the EPA, a metal roof that is ENERGY STAR certified can reduce roof temperatures by up to 100 degrees Fahrenheit. You can’t get any greener than that!

It doesn’t matter what type of metal roof you choose, installation is the most important thing. If the roof isn’t properly installed, even the most expensive roofs will fail. Make sure you hire a qualified metal roof installer before you purchase your roof.

Metal roofs are a great option for homeowners looking to save money on their roofs and improve energy efficiency.
