Insulating Roof Paints & Coatings
Hy-Tech roof coatings are fluid applied ceramic filled coatings that when applied to your roof, greatly reduce the amount of heat transferred through it. These single component, water based acrylic/urethane roof paints provide an insulating barrier against solar heat gain in the summer and heat loss from inside the structure during the winter while the elastomeric resins wrap your roof in a seamless, insulating, elastic waterproofing membrane.
How do they work?
When solar radiation strikes an uncoated roof, it is converted into Infra Red radiation. This radiated energy passes down through the roof, and is absorbed by everything inside the building. The internal temperature then continually rises throughout the day which is why your air conditioning runs continuously in the summertime.
An average uncoated roof reflects about 20% of the available solar radiation and absorbs about 80%. This energy is then radiated into the building below. Circulating air absorbs this heat from the underside of the roof and increases the overall inside temperature.
A coated roof reflects and emits about 90% of the Infra Red radiation striking it.
Hy-Tech roof coatings provide the maximum thermal heat reflectivity properties of ANY coatings available today.
The high reflectivity of our roof paints and coatings eliminate most thermal stress in a roof system by creating a radiate barrier to block solar energy, and by releasing any absorbed heat quickly, avoiding heat build-up in the roof and substrate. Their ability to emit heat is particularly useful at night. Any built-up energy in a building is absorbed back through the roof, allowing the building to cool rapidly. Traditional roof materials retain heat in a building throughout the night because of their low emittance values. The density of the ceramic particles resist wear and degradation from ultra violet radiation, extending the useful life of the system. The insulating effects of the product remain constant throughout its useful life.
These bright white high build formulas are designed to insulate,seal, and protect well drained roof surfaces. The thick rubber like ceramic reinforced shield adheres well over aged galvanized and metal roofs, wood, shingle roofs, built-up roofs with dried-out asphalt or aluminum coatings, urethane and polystyrene foam insulation, polyester plastic panels, precast flat concrete, flat and barrel cement tiles and many single ply roofing materials. Elastomeric roof coatings are a proven life extender for aged EPDM roofs.
All our roof coatings offer superior mildew resistance, soundproofing, UV ray reflectivity, corrosion resistance and a beautiful insulating finish.
Benefits:
Over a whole day up to 50% of the solar heat load is prevented from entering a building's coated roof.
During hot weather, internal building temperatures can be reduced by over 60° F after the application of insulating roof coatings.
In tests conducted by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, white reflective roof coatings saved up to 50% in energy costs. Savings will vary depending upon roof assembly, insulation thickness, roof area and climate.
