Cool Roof Coatings in the Illawarra
Heat-reflective coatings that bring the temperature of your roof down, take load off the air conditioner and make the upstairs rooms liveable through summer.
WHAT IS A COOL ROOF COATING?
A Cooler House. A Cheaper Summer.
A dark roof in full sun gets brutally hot, and that heat works its way down into the rooms below. A cool roof coating reflects a large share of that sunlight instead of absorbing it, so both the roof surface and the roof space run cooler.
It can go on as part of a full restoration, or over a sound, clean roof on its own. You get the same protective sealing as a standard coating, with the reflective properties on top.
- Noticeably cooler upstairs rooms
- Less run time on the air con
- Available in a range of colours
THE BENEFITS OF A COOL ROOF
Reflect the Heat. Feel the Difference.
Lower Indoor Temperatures
Reflecting heat at the roof keeps it out of the rooms underneath.
Reduced Cooling Costs
The air conditioner works less to hold the same temperature through summer.
Less Thermal Stress
Cooler surfaces expand and contract less, which is easier on tiles and pointing.
Protects The Roof Too
The coating seals against rain and UV, the same as a standard sealer.
Easier On The Grid
Less peak-time cooling load on the hottest days of the year.
Protecting Homes. Enhancing Value.
