Every homeowner knows that a good roof equals a long-lasting and well-protected home. But apart from that, a high-quality roof can also help conserve energy and keep your living spaces comfortable all year round. Keep reading to find out how your roof can help reduce your energy consumption and monthly utility bills.
Your roofing contractor or home builder will ensure proper attic insulation alongside your new roof. This is crucial in maintaining more consistent temperatures in the attic. Excessive heat can quickly deteriorate the roofing material and potentially travel toward your living spaces, affecting your indoor temperatures.
Ventilation usually works hand in hand with insulation. Together, they help improve your roof’s longevity and performance. Ventilation helps cool down your roofing, which then contributes to cooler indoor spaces. Intake vents provide fresh air into the attic while exhaust vents remove hot air from the attic. This system prevents heat from building up in the attic and ice dams from forming during winter.
High-pigmentation colors, such as black, absorb more heat than do light colors. That said, light-colored roofing materials reflect heat better than dark-colored ones. They can help save energy by reducing the heat that enters your home.
Radiant barriers use a special coat of paint that reflects heat away from the attic. It aims to lower solar heat gain and works well with attic ventilation and insulation. That said, consider asking your roofer to install radiant barriers during your roof replacement.
