Common Mistakes to Avoid
(01)
Providence's unique weather patterns demand specific considerations when installing cool roofs. We've seen many homeowners choose roofing materials that aren't suited for our New England climate with hot summers and cold, snowy winters.
Cool roofs in our region should be designed to handle temperature fluctuations and moisture challenges. The reflective properties must work effectively during summer without creating issues in winter.
Ignoring Local Climate
(02)
The long-term performance of your cool roof directly correlates with material quality. Low-grade reflective coatings often deteriorate quickly, reducing energy efficiency benefits within just a few years.
Key quality indicators include:
- Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) rating of 78+ for flat roofs
- ENERGY STAR® certification
- Manufacturer warranty of 15+ years
- Proper thickness of coating materials
Choosing Low-Quality Materials
(03)
A cool roof works best when paired with appropriate insulation. Many Providence homeowners focus solely on the reflective surface while neglecting the insulation layer beneath.
Proper insulation:
- Enhances energy efficiency by 25-40%
- Prevents heat transfer through the roof structure
- Reduces HVAC system strain
- Maintains consistent indoor temperatures
Skipping Proper Insulation
(04)
Even the best cool roof installation requires ongoing care to maintain its energy-saving properties. Many property owners install cool roofs but fail to implement proper maintenance schedules.
Dirt, debris, and biological growth can significantly reduce reflectivity. A clean cool roof reflects up to 80% of solar radiation, while a dirty one might reflect less than 50%.
We recommend:
- Bi-annual professional inspections
- Cleaning surfaces every 12-18 months
- Prompt repair of any coating damage
- Reapplication of reflective coatings according to manufacturer schedules
Neglecting Regular Maintenance
