Energy Efficient Roof System Why should you choose Boral Energy Efficient Roof system? Highly Energy Efficient and Long Lasting.
2008
How does it work? Tile roofs are highly insulating and prevent much of the sun’s heat from penetrating the building. Boral offers tiles in a wide range of profiles in highly reflective colors and certain tiles meet Energy Star and U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) rating. In addition to tile’s thermal mass, the air space between the tile and the roof deck provides a layer of insulation. Boral Roof Tiles go a step further by naturally ventilating this air space. Nearly all the heat that penetrates through the tiles is vented through the ridge. This keeps the building cooler, reducing your energy bills every year with no electrical or mechanical parts. Letting your tile roof system breathe will also make it last longer than traditional roof construction.
The most common reason for reroofing is deterioration of the roof system beneath the tiles when tiles or flashings are damaged or installed incorrectly. Boral roof systems allow moisture that may get under the tiles or flashings to flow down and off the roof deck and quickly dry out, keeping the roof system in good condition to last longer. Hot air is released through the ridge
How much could you save? According to Oak Ridge National Laboratory, an independent testing agency, a family in a typical single family house could save up to 22% per year on heating and cooling costs compared to the standard asphalt shingle roof.1 A single family house with a Boral Energy Efficient Roof System could save an average of $15 to $20 per month immediately compared to a standard asphalt shingle roof and as energy rates rise year over year, your savings could increase as well and could amount up to $20,000 over 30 years.2
