EPDM Roof Adds Energy Efficiency
Carlisle EPDM roofs do a great job of adding energy efficiency to a house or commercial building. Check out some of the main reasons below!
HEATING REDUCTION IS KEY
In Massachusetts & New England, heating costs account for a significantly larger amount of money for homeowners in comparison to cooling costs. So, in terms of a roofs important factors, keeping a house warm during the winter is more critical than cool during the summer. The Carlisle black EPDM roof does an amazing job of absorbing heat for energy efficiency purposes.
DARK-COLORED MEMBRANES OUTPERFORM WHITE
Because dark-colored roofs attract more heat, they are much better at saving energy in Massachusetts. Along with saving more money, black roofs create fewer carbon emissions because of the reduced heating demand.
THAT LEAK COULD ACTUALLY BE CONDENSATION
Roofing materials that don’t get warm enough during the winter can lead to moisture accumulation within certain roof assemblies. What may appear to be a faulty roof material will simply be condensation forming in your building. Properly designed and installed insulation along with Carlisle’s EPDM can stop the formation of any condensation leakage.
