What Makes Roof Shield Coating® Special?
Roof Shield Coating® is not just another roof coating. It’s a high-tech, 100% acrylic, elastomeric coating designed to offer superior protection for your roof. Utilizing cutting-edge technology, the coating incorporates ceramic microspheres—tiny ceramic balls—that elevate its effectiveness.
Quality and Performance
This unique formula distinguishes Roof Shield Coating® from other roof coatings in both quality and performance. It enhances your building’s energy efficiency by improving thermal and insulating properties. The coating reflects approximately 90% of the sun’s damaging UV rays, reducing building temperature and consequently lowering energy costs.
Weather Resistance
Roof Shield Coating® excels in weather resistance. More than just a barrier against the sun, it’s also waterproof. The elastomeric coating forms a solid layer that bridges hairline cracks in the roof, preventing leaks before they even start. Furthermore, it’s formulated to combat natural adversaries like mildew, fungus, and algae, thereby maintaining a clean and new-looking roof.
Installation Process
The application involves a three-layer approach. First, a primer coat is applied to prepare the roofing surface. Then, two topcoats of the elastomeric coating are added to ensure a leak-proof roof, offering you peace of mind.
Roof Shield Coating®: The Best Cool Roof Option
Infused with ceramic microspheres and featuring a solar-reflective outer layer, Roof Shield Coating® sets the standard for cool roofing. Options are available for almost all types of roof coverings.
Benefits of Cool Roofs
A cool roof offers multiple advantages, including:
- Reducing energy bills by lowering air conditioning requirements.
- Assisting older or undersized air conditioning systems in meeting today’s hotter summers.
- Qualifying for money-saving rebates from utilities or governmental programs.
- Allowing for the downsizing of new or replacement air conditioning equipment, thereby saving money and possibly increasing efficiency.
- Improving comfort in non-air-conditioned spaces.
- Lowering roof temperature, potentially extending the roof’s service life.
Cost and Energy Savings
While a cool roof doesn’t necessarily cost more than a standard one, converting an existing, well-maintained standard roof to a cool roof can be costly.
Climate and Environment
Climate is a crucial factor in deciding whether a cool roof is suitable for your building. Although cool roofs provide the most significant cooling savings in hot climates, they may increase energy costs in colder climates.
Warranty and Energy Efficiency
Moreover, the reliability of Roof Shield Coating® is backed by a 30-year combined warranty. It’s even recognized as a “cool roof” by the U.S. Department of Energy, meeting their high standards for energy efficiency.
The Bottom Line
If you’re in the market for a roof coating that delivers unparalleled protection, energy savings, and durability, Roof Shield Coating® has you covered.
