If you’ve lived in the greater Phoenix area long enough, odds are you have, or considered switching to, a white vehicle. It’s amazing the change I have felt last Summer since I switched to a lighter vehicle color! Why is that? It is because white reflects the light and heat, whereas darker colors absorb heat.
Did you know this same concept works for your roof, too? If you have a flat roof with rolled roofing, your home is more likely to soak in and retain heat, causing you to run your AC longer to cool your home. With a foam system with an elastomeric coating, the white coating slows the heat absorption and keeps your home cooler. Read more about foam roofs.
There are great savings benefits to foam roofs. In fact, it is the only roofing system that will give a positive return on your investment and eventually pay for itself through cost savings. Save energy, save money, and save on the use of your air conditioning by switching to a foam system! Call today to schedule a roofing specialist to see if a foam roof is a good choice for your home!
