Cool Roof Coatings

Title-24 compliant reflective coatings that lower cooling costs

Cool roof coatings reflect the desert sun instead of absorbing it. On a flat or low-slope roof in the Coachella Valley, that translates to a meaningfully lower AC bill, a cooler attic, and a roof that lasts longer because it is not baking. We apply Title-24 compliant cool roof systems that meet California energy code.

What a cool roof actually does

• Reflects up to 85 percent of solar radiation
• Lowers roof surface temperature by 50 to 60 degrees in peak sun
• Reduces cooling loads and AC run time in the summer
• Meets California Title 24 prescriptive cool-roof requirements
• Extends the life of the underlying roof material

Systems we apply

Acrylic and silicone-based cool roof coatings, both Title-24 compliant. The right system depends on whether the roof gets ponding water (silicone wins) or a drier slope (acrylic is cheaper and fine). We spec the right one for your roof after a walk-through.

What it costs to skip

A dark or aged flat roof in Palm Springs can hit 160-180 degrees in July. That heat soaks into your attic and into the AC compressor. A cool roof flips that, and most homeowners see the system pay back through AC savings over its life.
