A cool roof can:
Increase indoor comfort by keeping a building cooler
in the summer months.
Reduce energy costs. Studies have shown that cool
roofing can lead to energy savings of 10-30%.
Address air pollution and global warming concerns
by lowering CO2 and other emissions associated
with fossil fuel generated electricity.
Reduce “urban heat island effect” by reflecting heat
back into the atmosphere.
Pay for itself. The California energy commission cites
cases of a 2-5 yr payback for installing a cool roof.

Depending on the situation, either closed cell or open cell will be used:
CLOSED CELL SPRAY FOAM
Closed Cell SPF reduces energy use in building beyond it stated R-Value (R-Value of 7/inch)
- One set (1 drum A & 1 drum B) of chemical yields 5000 board feet of foam
- Provided a continuous barrier
- PREVENTS moisture infiltration through air leakage
- Minimizes dew point problems & condensation
- Avoids thermal bridging
- Resists heat movement in all directions
- Helps reduce exterior noise
- Creates a barrier against gas & odor
- Retards insects & rodent penetration
- Adds structural integrity to the house
- Meets Class 1 requirements
OPEN CELL SPARY FOAM (about 1/3 the cost of closed cell, can be used for interior insulation, or under layer on roof)
Half pound Open Cell SPF reduces energy use in buildings beyond its stated R-Value (R-Value of 3.8-4/inch)
- On set (1 drum A & 1 drum B) of chemical yields 16,000 board feet of foam
- Provides a continuous barrier
- DOEN NOT prevent total moisture infiltration
- Prevents air leakage
- Minimizes dew point problems & condensation
- Avoids thermal bridging
- Resists heat movement in all directions
- Helps reduce and absorbs exterior noise
- Excellent sound abatement
- Creates a barrier against gas & odor
- Retards insects & rodent penetration
- Adds limited structural integrity
- Reduces or eliminates currents within walls
- Meets Class 1 requirements
