Highly reflective Aluminum metal roofing panels are created with special pigmented paint that reflects the suns energy in the infrared spectrum, that’s reducing the heat that is transferred to the homes interior by convection from the roof surface.
The Aluminum metal roofing has the highest emissivity rating. Emissivity is the rate that heat is continously thrown off or removed from the roofs surface

Metal roofing is growing A following among residential homeowners today. No longer just applied to commercial buildings. This fortified roofing product is becoming the favorite among homeowners in many parts of the US.
The new appeal is largely aesthetic. metal roofing is patterned to mimic the look of wood shake or slate and other designs. If you have A wood shake look alike metal roof and you were standing at the curb, it will be hard to tell it is metal at all.
Even subdivisions that once outlawed metal roofing are softening to the look alike styles and colors. But looks alone haven’t earned metal roofing the attention it is getting. Roof ravaging severe weather have won metal roofing some converts among homeowners tired of paying for replacement roofs prematurely, 12-15 years old roofs.

That’s right, Classic Metal Roofing Systems are green, for several reasons.
First, lets look at the potential for energy savings in your home!
Cool Metal Roofs by Classic Metal Roofing Systems use Kynar 500 or Hylar 5000 coatings with infrared-reflective ceramic pigments that reflect the suns infrared (IR) rays. The coating also have high Emissivity values, this refers to the ability of A material to give up its heat, in the form of radiation.
A cool metal roof derives its performance from:
Infrared-reflective “hi-R” technology- keeps your roof cooler under by reflecting A portion of the infrared energy in sunlight.
Infrared radiation accounts for up to 45% of attic heat build-up.
High emissivity-enables the roof to shed its heat load, as re-emitted energy,quickly after sundown.
Low thermal mass- conventional roofing materials retain their heat load for hours, much of it soaking into the roof deck, then the attic and , ultimately, into the living space.
Static airspace- between the roofing material and the roof deck. Created by deep texture formed into Classic Metal Roofing Systems shingles, eliminating almost all conduction paths into underlying deck.
Studies show these properties combine to reduce summer cooling energy demands by as much as 23%. Your air conditioner may not be needed for as much as two or three weeks at each end of the season.
Important for or society is A reduced peak demand placed on utility power plants. Converting even A small percentage of the 15.5 billion SQ.FT. North American residential roofing market (Principe Partners, April 2008) will have A dramatic effect. Industry estimates for metal roofs is upwards of 8 percent of the residential roofing market.
