Cool Roofs
These roofs are most commonly white. This is a roofing system that delivers high solar reflectance and high thermal emittance. Cool roofs enhance roof durability and reduce both building cooling loads and the urban heat island effect.
Photo Voltaic (Solar) Panels
Photo Voltaic panels convert sunlight into electricity. Studies have shown that PV panels can provide great savings for their users in the long run.
Green Roofs
A green roof is a roof of a building that is partially or completely covered with vegetation and a growing medium, planted over a waterproofing membrane. Also known as “living roofs”, green roofs serve several purposes for a building, such as absorbing rainwater, providing insulation, creating a habitat for wildlife, and helping to lower urban air temperatures and combat the heat island effect.
Green technologies are an investment for future generations. At the end of each workday at Nortex Roofing we acknowledge that fact through our continuous actions we can help preserve the planet for future generations.
