Roof Shingle With Solar Reflectance

Buy cool asphalt shingles which use specially coated granules that provide better solar reflectance.

Roof shingle with solar reflectance.

Solar reflective shingles are designed specifically to reduce the absorption of the suns infrared radiation by reflecting ir rays off the surface of the roof thus not allowing the heat to be transferred to the interior of the structure i e. Cambridge tm cool colors reflect a percentage of solar radiation. Shingle roofs consist of overlapping panels made from a variety of materials such as fiberglass asphalt wood polymers or metals. The highly solar reflective shingles with up to 40 solar reflectivity are landmark solaris platinum shingles.

Every shingle in the cool roof collection features a precise mix of solar reflecting granules to help comply with the solar reflectance index sri requirements of title 24 part 6 even with deeper vibrant colors. Some heat that was absorbed by roof is transferred into the building. Explore our expanded cool roof collection and reflect your unique style. Roofing shingles and materials plus factory certified roofers including ratings from real homeowners from north america s largest roofing manufacturer.

Solar reflectance index sri. Sri measures the roof s ability to reject solar heat defined such that a standard black reflectance 0 05 emittance 0 90 is 0 and a standard white reflectance 0 80 emittance 0 90 is 100. It also must meet the specific solar reflectance thermal emittance and or solar reflectance index values defined by the specific energy code. The cool roof rating council was created in 1998 to develop accurate and credible methods for evaluating and labeling the solar reflectance and thermal emittance radiative properties of roofing products and to disseminate the information to all interested parties.

Incorporates both solar reflectance and thermal emissivity in a single value. Solar radiation heats the roof surface. Residential and commercial roofing shingles slate roof ventilation roof underlayments asphaltic and tpo roof membranes.
