Standing Seam Metal Roof Solar Reflectance

For steep slope applications greater than 2 12 pitch.

Standing seam metal roof solar reflectance.

Energy star requires an initial sr value of 0 25 or higher for steep slope 2 12 roofs and 0 15 or greater after three years. Berridge metal products have a high recycled content and are 100 recyclable at the end of their lifespan. Its unique mechanical lock design profile forms a weather tight unit and unlike some other types of panel metal roofs no rivets or screws are exposed on the surface of the panels. Incorporating advancements in coating technology the energy performance characteristics of metal sales finishes and colors meet demonstrated requirements established by energy star and the cool roof rating council crrc for solar reflectance and thermal emittance for steep sloped and or low sloped buildings.

With a conventional roof such as asphalt shingles you would need to drill holes into the roof in order to mount the panels. Standing seam systems are frequently made with cool roofing coil that have highly reflective pigments and highly emissive metal. Colonial seam continuous standing seam metal roof panel with an integral seam. Recycled content of berridge metal.

Low slope roofs require an initial sr value of 0 65 or higher and 0 50 or greater after three year. A value of 0 indicates that the material absorbs all solar energy and a value of 1 0 indicates total reflectance. Many cool metal roofing systems are also energy star certified and may qualify for tax incentives. Low gloss low sheen 70 pvdf finish.

Standing seam is great for mounting of the pv solar panels no need to drill any holes in the roof as pv panels are mounted onto the seams of the metal roof with the help of s 5 brackets. The most effective energy saving finish for metal roofing is commonly referred to as cool metal roofing. Pac 150 90 single lock. Cool metal roofing systems help reduce the energy need of air conditioned buildings and makes unconditioned buildings more comfortable.

The sr value is a number from 0 to 1 0. Pac 150 180 double lock. Initial minimum solar reflectance of 0 25 and 3 year aged minimum solar reflectance of 0 15. Clipless one piece positive locking standing seam panel that provides a timeless roof appearance.

This means these systems do an excellent job of reflecting the sun s rays and dispelling the associated radiant heat that other roofing types may retain. Metal roofing color availability chart for kynar 500 or hylar 5000 pre finished galvalume steel and aluminum for metal roofing curtainwall storefront. Interlock standing seam metal roof panels are a fully interlocking system. Initial minimum solar reflectance of 0 65 and 3 year aged minimum solar reflectance of 0 50.

For low slope applications 2 12 or less pitch. Sri measures the roof s ability to reject solar heat defined such that a standard black reflectance 0 05 emittance 0 90 is 0 and a standard white reflectance 0 80 emittance 0 90 is 100.
