Cool Roof Store
The
cool-roof movement in Hawaii has spread like a brush fire in August. Everywhere
you look you see elegant white roofs cooling down the homes they are attached
to all around Honolulu. AC bills are often reduced by 25 percent or more. Roofs
that used to be torn off and replaced are now being preserved and protected
from destructive UV and infrared rays for the lifetime of the structure.
But what
happens if your homeowners association won’t allow a white roof? Perhaps you
have a million-dollar ocean view that is obscured by the glare from the first
story roof below you. Or maybe you just want to fit into a neighborhood that
has mostly dark-colored roofs. Does that mean you have to suffer through yet
another hot summer?
Now you
don’t have to. NXT Cool Zone has developed a tough, fade-resistant roof paint
that keeps your roof cool even when using dark colors like charcoal gray or
brick red. How does it do this? By using modern nanotechnology, the company
developed an infrared heat shield that keeps heat from penetrating the roof. The
proprietary formula keeps its paint from fading in the sun. As a world leader
in roof paint for 42 years, the company’s paint has restored more than 750,000
roofs worldwide and offers a 12-year warranty. The movement started off in
Australia, where metal and concrete tiles are the most popular forms of
roofing. Then, it expanded to Southern California, where the roofs have rapidly
grown in popularity because they comply with tough cool-roof standards in Title
24 (also known as the California Building Standards Code). Now, the Cool Roof
Store has brought this technology to Hawaii.
Monier tile
roofs
Since they
are so expensive to replace when their protective glaze burns off, Monier tile
roofs are the most popular roofs being restored worldwide. With NXT Cool Zone,
you can choose from three different primers that can be used to seal up the
weathered tile, depending on how bad the surface is. If it is down to bare
concrete, the company recommends its Master Primer to start off with. Then you
apply two finish coats and you’re done.
