Standing Seam Metal Roof Solar Reflectance

Clipless one piece positive locking standing seam panel that provides a timeless roof appearance.

Standing seam metal roof solar reflectance. Low slope roofs require an initial sr value of 0 65 or higher. Low gloss low sheen 70 pvdf finish. Pac 150 180 double lock. A value of 0 indicates that the material absorbs all solar energy and a value of 1 0 indicates total reflectance.

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. Reflectance in relation to metal roofing refers to uv and infrared light rays being reflected from the roof surface. However crystalline panels are bulkier and use a special mounting system which requires roof penetrations. Architectural metal roofing panels metal wall panels and related products such as soffit panels highest quality fascia and coping systems.

Berridge metal products have a high recycled content and are 100 recyclable at the end of their lifespan. Pac 150 90 single lock.

Tax credits energy efficiency federal tax credits homeowners can receive a tax credit of 10 of the cost up to 500 for interlock metal roofing systems installed on their principal residence.

In the case of a cool metal roof a lower surface temperature translates into less heat gain into the attic space or living space below the roof. 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. The deduction applies to roofs installed between january 1 2011 and december 31 2020. You can attach an s 5 solar panel holding brackets to the raised seams of a standing seam roof.

Recycled content of berridge metal. Pac 150 90 single lock. The only exception is a standing seam metal roof. A cool metal roof with high solar reflectance and high thermal emittance would have a lower surface temperature as compared to a roof with low reflectance and low emittance.

The sr value is a number from 0 to 1 0. 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. Colonial seam continuous standing seam metal roof panel with an integral seam. Solar reflectance index calculated according to astm e 1980.
