Reflective Roof Retrofits
Experiments: 1993 - 1998Dark roofed attics can reach 130 - 140EF on summer afternoons. A white color will reflect much of this heat back to the sky. Reducing the temperature in the attic is doubly importantbecause of the presence of the cooling ducts.
Pre-post experiments in 19 homes:- 19 % average reduction in cooling energy use- 23 % average reduction in peak demand

Getting advantages on Getting advantages on the street…the street…
o More reflective roofing is no cost option within any roofing type, but…
o Need to influence decision at time of construction or re-roof
o Metal will have greatest reflectance longevity
o Chinese menu approachReflective roofRadiant BarrierMore insulation, interior ductsSealed attic with cool roofing
o Savings will be ~20-25% for cooling with very reflective roof
o 10 – 15% with moderately reflective tile roof with good venting
o ~10% for radiant barrier with good ventilation
o Peak savings are larger
