How to Save a Bundle on a Sunny Day

What if you could get the new roof you need and save a bundle on your energy bills -- all at the same time?  You can when Orange County Roofers install solar reflective shingles. As the name implies, these shingles literally reflect sunlight away from your rooftop. By doing so, they help minimize the heat entering your home when temperatures soar.

To gain some perspective, consider what happens when an Orange County Roofing Company installs standard shingles. In that case, daily sunlight would reach your rooftop, which would absorb the incoming solar heat energy. The absorption process transfers the heat into your home, thereby raising interior temperatures. Perfect if you reside in a cold climate and welcome additional heating. In Southern California, particularly during the summer months, this might not be your favorite option.

If your home isn’t equipped with air conditioning, you’ll feel the discomforting impact of higher temperatures very quickly. And if your home does have a cooling system, you’ll feel the discomforting impact of higher energy bills as your AC kicks into action more often. Fortunately, these two outcomes would be minimized after Orange County Roofers installed solar reflective shingles. Your roof would be sending sunlight away from the home, instead of into it.   

How do solar reflective shingles get the job done? Basically, their power derives from a coating of special reflective granules and other materials. But there’s much more to know about the science behind these shingles. And you can educate yourself, if so inclined, simply by asking a local expert. For instance, if you live in Laguna Hills, just consult a Laguna Hills Roofer. You’re sure to be enlightened in no time at all.
