Roof “Cooling Time” is a relatively new term used in the roofing industry although it has been know for decades that there is a big difference between a light colored and dark colored roofing system when it comes to the amount of time it takes it to heat up the interior of a structure and then in turn for it to cool down. The type of material used in the roofing “system” makes
a big difference in this daily cycle of heating and cooling. Insulation is a key factor in flat roofing systems by not only keeping air conditioning in but also not allowing heat to penetrate the structures roof in hotter climates. The result of a better insulated and more reflective roofing system is less energy used for cooling purposes, which is a big concern in Southwest
Florida.
DuraLoc Roofing Systems has had great success using our MST-100-ES (Energy Star) roofing system by creating one of the most reflective and durable roof coatings on the market. Our product installation will save energy dollars by keeping your “cooling time” at a bare minimum. Furthermore, if you existing roofing system qualifies,
you could receive funding from the Florida Power and Light Energy Saving Program just by installing our Energy Star certified product.
