Metal roofs are gaining popularity due to their durability, energy efficiency, and environmental benefits. They can last between 40 to 70 years and are recyclable. The installation method significantly enhances their energy efficiency, with studies showing a 45% reduction in heat flow and up to 25% savings on cooling costs when ventilated correctly. Additionally, metal roofs combat the urban Heat Island Effect by reflecting solar energy, making neighborhoods cooler. In contrast to traditional asphalt, metal roofs reflect more heat, providing substantial advantages in energy conservation.
The popularity of metal roofs has soared in recent years because of their durability, energy efficiency, and environmental performance.
Researchers found a 45% decrease in the flow of heat with the metal roof, mostly attributable to the ventilation above the sheathing.
Having an air gap acts almost like insulation, preventing heat transfer out of the home.
Metal roofs can have solar reflective coatings applied, which reflect the sun's radiation and are helpful in warmer climates.
