What San Diego Homeowners Are Saying...
Cool Roof technology is an effective and eco-friendly solution for improving energy efficiency and reducing cooling costs.
With various material options available, homeowners and businesses in San Diego can benefit from enhanced comfort, cost savings, and a longer-lasting roof.
The primary benefit of Cool Roof technology is its ability to reduce indoor temperatures, particularly during peak summer months in Southern California.
This results in several key advantages:
Cool roofs can reduce air conditioning needs by up to 15-30%, significantly lowering energy bills. Less reliance on HVAC systems prolongs the lifespan of cooling equipment, reducing maintenance costs.
Homes and buildings with cool roofs experience lower interior temperatures, especially in spaces without air conditioning.
Cities with a high concentration of dark roofs absorb and retain more heat, raising local temperatures. Cool roofs help mitigate this effect, contributing to a more comfortable urban environment.
By reducing heat exposure, cool roofs experience less thermal stress and deterioration, extending their durability.
Lower energy consumption translates to reduced greenhouse gas emissions, making cool roofs a more sustainable choice.
The secret behind Cool Roof technology is not only the materials and coating used, but it is the science of solar reflectance. Click to enlarge this image and you can see how parts of California, including many parts of San Diego county, can greatly benefit from energy savings from solar reflectance added to different roof types. The map on the left is asphalt shingle roofs, and the map on the right is for tile roofs.
You can only imagine that the impact of this technology will only get better net energy savings over time, as SDG&E and other providers only seem to be rising prices consistently.
