Cool Roof Pays for Itself3766707

US Department of Energy spearheaded a cool roof initiative a few years ago.  Secretary Chu urged other government agencies to install white roof as a common practice.  While the Nobel Prize winner is the expert in energy, the truth is easy to understand.

First, white roof  ([http://pinterest.com/coolroofing/ reflective roof]) can reduce the heat level on the roof by 70°F.  A darker roof can reach more than 170°F under the hot sun when a white roof stays at about 100-110°F.  That implies the AC unit under a white roof has an easy load.  The desired temperature, 72°F, is only 20-30°F from the roof temperature as opposed to 100°F.  The math is simple.  

According to general estimate, cool roof can pays for itself in as short as 5 years.  This is particularly true for commercial roofing since cooling is a huge part of the bill.  For commercial building, states, like California, mandate cool roof.  Title 24 specifies energy efficient regulations.
