Extreme Heat & Your Roof

With temperatures reaching record highs in the Southeast, it is more important than ever to think about the effect extreme heat can have on your roof and more importantly your home.

Your roof’s shingles can exceed the outdoor temperature by as much as 80 degrees. This extreme heat is transferred into the attic space and thus into the living space pushing your A/C system to it’s limits.

There are many products on the market today that can help decrease this heat transfer and save you on cooling costs. Check out one of these products, the GAF Timberline Cool Series Shingle, at the link below.

Contact Atlanta Roofing Specialists if you would like more information on this or other Cool Roofing products.
