Energy Saving Roof

Higher Performance. Lower Energy Costs.

Are you ready to have your roof do more than just beautify the structure it protects? Now you can create a superior roof by incorporating Eagle’s Cool Roofing products and accessories. These can be used together or separately to increase the performance, longevity and efficiency of your new roof.

Energy Saving Roof

The Eagle Energy Saving Roof is an installation method utilizing Eagle’s concrete roof tile and several Eagle accessory products to install the roof in an energy efficient manner. With the Eagle Energy Saving Roof installation, an air current is created drawing air in at the eave level and out at the ridge. This ventilation of the roof deck helps to reduce heat transfer into your attic and thus into your home. The result means less work for the air conditioner, less expenditure of energy and lower electrical bills for the end user.

Studies Show the Energy Saving Roof Helps Prevent Heat Transfer

According to Dr. Miller of Oak Ridge National Laboratories, a 1995 study by Beal and Chandra showed:

• A 48% reduction in heat transfer into the attic with tile roofs installed using ASV (above sheathing ventilation like the Energy Saving Roof) when compared to a direct nailed asphalt shingle roof.

• A 39% reduction of heat transfer into the attic in comparing concrete tile and asphalt shingles when both products were installed in a direct deck application.

This means that an Eagle Energy Saving Roof can reduce heat transfer into the attic by almost 50%. The result is a significant reduction in the amount of energy required to cool a home and that results in lower electricity bills for the homeowner.

Eagle Roofing Accessories

These products help your contractor ensure your roof is installed properly; providing increased longevity and improved performance in varied weather conditions.
