Heat Reflective Coatings
Consumers want the option of having dark roofs with red, brown, terracotta and even black without compromising the energy capacity of their homes. Until now, design choices have always involved a battle between environmental impact and energy efficiency. But there is a way you can reduce the heat on your roof and live more comfortably without sacrificing your roof color choice. Heat reflective coatings come with a variety of advantages, making them by far the best choice for roof coating.
Heat reflective coatings are usually high performance coatings such as PVDF or acrylic. They are mainly used to reflect heat from structures or assemblies such as walls or roofs, with roofing being the most common application. The first heat reflective coating was bright white and had to be kept clean to maintain reflectivity.
Heat-reflective coatings can be applied to most layers, such as drywall, plaster, metal, porcelain, etc., where thermal barrier air is required. When used externally, product data sheets should be checked for UV and moisture resistance; For flexibility, if used on metal; And if used in coastal areas, for salt-spray resistance.
The Benefits of Heat Reflective Coatings
Save Money
Heat reflective coatings for metal and concrete roofs are reinstated at a fraction of the cost of roofing. This technology has enabled us to provide a dark colored outer coating that reflects 50% solar energy. This reduces the need for air conditioning, which saves you money on both electricity and water bills when using evaporative air conditioning. Reducing product replacement costs and maintenance, including air conditioning, roof design and hot water service, and roofing equipment such as electronics, will save you even more money.
Save Energy
Less air conditioning is required to reduce electricity consumption. Heat reflective coatings encourage the reuse of old viable roof structures, saving energy spent on building new structures, transporting and installing indoors and buildings.
The successful development of products like Energy Star enables you to choose to contribute positively to global color by reducing urban heat, smoke and its energy efficiency, helping to reduce CO2 emissions, lasting 400% longer than traditional paints. You will save energy and valuable resources without effort!
Reduced Environmental Impact
Living in relatively hot climates, our biggest demand for energy in Australia is air conditioning. Reflective roof coatings can reduce temperatures in farm facilities by up to 15%, reducing the energy demand of heating, ventilation and cooling (HVAC) systems.
Heat reflective roofing coatings lead to cooler homes and buildings, reducing urban heat islands that reduce ozone and healthy living standards. They help reduce greenhouse gas emissions for air-conditioned buildings. Cooler homes and buildings mean less chemicals and pollution for healthy cities, as well as less dehydration and chemical emissions.
Choice of Roof Colour
White, light pastel and silver roofs are always the best colors for the Australian atmosphere as they reflect the warmth of the sun. However, these colors are not always appreciated for the design of the house and in some cases, the council planning control does not allow light colored and reflective roofs. Councils often need roofs to blend in with the local environment, i.e. green, brown, red and other colors are promoted. Many colors of heat reflective coatings adhere to council planning and building controls, meaning you have more choice of roof color.
