COOL FACTS ABOUT WHITE ROOFS

• White Roof Coatings can reduce energy bills up to 50%
• The estimated US potential savings for white roofs are in excess of $1 billion per year in net annual energy bills (cooling-energy savings minus heating-energy penalties)  http://www.energy.ca.gov/2008publications/LBNL-1000-2008-022/LBNL-1000-2008-022.PDF

  

 

Above graph shows:  On a 95 degree day the temperature on a black single ply EPDM roof could be as high as 193 degrees.  If your roof had a Weather Barrier Liquid Applied White Roofing Membrane the temperature would be around 115 degrees or less.  A difference of 80 degrees or more! Think of the savings in cooling costs...Think of the temperature difference inside the building....Think how the coating would protect the roof from breaking down and extending the life. Let us show you the Weather Barrier Difference.
