• Energy-efficient Tiles choices to make
• Your selected option must have ENERGY STAR
  Roofing mark to it. This certificate ensures that
  the materials used for manufacturing this roof
  are energy efficient. 
• Solar emit, and reflectance is a significant
  feature that shows whether Energy Star certifies
  the energy-efficient materials or not. Roofing,
  which reflects the suns UV rays and releases it
  into the air, keep the upper floors of the home
  cool. So, the homeowners need less energy to cool
  a place using the AC unit.
• Moreover, the roofs colour plays a significant
  role to make the roof energy efficient. Some of
  the lighter coloured ones reflect the suns
  energy more, and the darker ones, on the other
  hand, absorb heat more. Later, that heat gets
  transferred to attics, from where it delves deep
  into the home.
• So, next time you are planning to choose a colour
  for your roof, dont just go for the aesthetics.
  Try to focus on the energy-efficient value of it
  too, before making the final call.
• Most energy-efficient roofing material
• Among all the residential homes, the experts plan
  to use the terracotta tiles for their easy
  installation and lower costing features. But,
  these tiles are excellent in absorbing heat and
  reflecting it poorly. So, in the long run, if you
  are planning to save bucks by paying the lower
  electricity bill, be sure to spend some more on
  the roofing materials when aiming for Roof

Manufacturers use metal for making most of the
ENERGY STAR items. Such materials get very hot
under the sun because of its highly reflective
nature. These roofs are practically designed as
panelling series or to give a more traditional
tile-like look. Furthermore, these items are
pretty simple to install, as well. Another
energy-efficient design is by using the tile
roof. Tiles are made out of clay, slate or
concrete. Among the lot, the last example is
pretty durable. Most of the tiles for the roofing
structure get pre-treated for maximizing the heat
reflectivity. However, these items are more
comfortable to treat with their reflective
coatings, once installed. So, what are you
waiting for? The next time you are making plans
to change or repair your old roof, try installing
ENERGY STAR roof for best result. At the end of
every billing session, the final electricity
amount will make you happy! So, get the best one
