The Department of Energy has developed an energy savings calculator that can help you determine the potential savings associated with installing a cool roof, like Sika Sarnafil’s EnergySmart Roof, rather than a black one, such as an EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) or traditional asphalt roof.
To calculate how much energy – and money – your building might save, given the area of the U.S. in which it’s located and the typical cost of electricity, go to the Energy Calculator.
