Roof Spray Cooling Systems

Whitecap provides a means to evaporatively and radiatively cool water by spraying it over a building roof at night.

Roof spray cooling systems.

This cooling reverses the heat flow through the roof. One study indicates that water use is around 100 gallons per day per 1000 sqft of roof area. There are many types of roof systems available but the surface exposed to the sun is the one that determines if a roof is cool or not. Spray cooled equipment is the safer alternative to pressurized water cooling.

With applications every five years roof maxx can add up to 15 years of life to an asphalt roof. Heat is now transferred out of the building through the roof. These systems provide cooling by spraying the water evaporates and cools the surface. An evaporative roof cooling system is designed to reduce the temperature of a roof from 165 f to about 90 f.

Whitecap roof spray cooling system cooling technology for warm dry climates whitecap is an integrated roof surface and spray cooling system that is suitable for warm dry climates. The cooled water is collected from the. Ember s guard roof sprinkler system is the one of the most effective efficient tool to protect property from wildfire ember attack. Also called an evaporative cooling system a roof misting system lowers surface temperatures by spraying an extremely small amount of water across the roof allowing the water to cool the roof as it evaporates.

At its lowest tech a roof misting system can be little more than a garden hose set to the mist setting and aimed across the roof. Spray on roof coatings commercial roofing the home depot store finder. This effect creates an effect equivalent of r 7 roof insulation during the day. Our spray applied polyurethane foam systems provide an astonishing 84 96 roof reflective rate with an inherent roof insulation value ranging from r 6 4 to r 30 lowering inside temperatures up to 10 25 degrees fahrenheit.

Ember s guard roof sprinkler systems are a temporary fire suppression system they are not designed to put out a fire but help prevent ignition. The result is not only lower utility bills but also vastly reduced expansion and contraction of the roof system. It can make a difference for roofs as young as 6 8 years old depending on the weather conditions in a given area. Coatings are like very thick paints that can protect the roof surface from ultra violet uv light and chemical damage and some offer water protection and restorative features.

Cool roof coatings are white or special reflective pigments that reflect sunlight. Areas where water is in short supply. But we also apply roof maxx to roofs 15 20 years old all the time though some require repairs first. Because spray cooled equipment operates at atmospheric pressure the cooling water is not pumped across the area to be cooled.
