A reflective roof coating reduced peak roof temperature by 14.1°C and indoor temperature by 2.4°C; later research found evaporative cooling could add further benefits
Innovative roofing technologies are changing the game for building temperature regulation. By utilizing white reflective coatings, sunlight is deflected, significantly lowering roof temperatures. Additionally, evaporative cooling systems mimic the body's natural perspiration, extracting heat through evaporation. These advances promise to lower indoor temperatures and energy expenditures, making them a smart investment for hotter regions.
