Reflective Shingles: Energy-Efficient Roofing for Kerala Homes
Scaff’s offers high-quality reflective shingles designed to keep homes in Kerala cool and energy-efficient. These specially engineered shingles reduce heat absorption, making them an ideal choice for Kerala’s tropical climate.
What Are Reflective Shingles?
Reflective shingles, sometimes called “cool shingles,” are designed to reflect more sunlight than traditional roofing materials. This is achieved by incorporating highly reflective granules and coatings into the shingle material, which help to bounce a significant portion of sunlight away from the roof surface. As a result, the roof remains cooler, and less heat is transferred into the home.
How Do Reflective Shingles Work?
Reflective shingles use advanced technology to reduce heat absorption. By reflecting sunlight, they lower the roof surface temperature, especially during the hottest parts of the day. This can reduce the demand for air conditioning, leading to energy savings and enhanced indoor comfort. For maximum energy efficiency, you can pair reflective shingles with a starter roof shingle, which provides additional insulation and prevents heat from entering your home.
Benefits of Reflective Shingles
- Energy Savings: Reflective shingles help reduce cooling costs by keeping roofs cooler, decreasing the need for air conditioning.
- Enhanced Indoor Comfort: By reducing the amount of heat entering the home, reflective shingles help maintain a more comfortable indoor temperature.
- Longer Roof Lifespan: Cooler roofs tend to have a longer lifespan, as they are less prone to heat-related damage. Scaff’s Cambridge roofing shingles include reflective options that can withstand Kerala’s climate.
- Eco-Friendly: Using reflective shingles helps reduce energy consumption, supporting environmentally-friendly living by decreasing carbon emissions associated with cooling.
