We start with the existing roof top surface and add a lightweight rigid insulation that provides excellent R-value, and gypsum board that acts as a fire barrier and provides resistance against punctures. The roof is topped with a durable white single-ply roofing membrane.

These three components provide customers with an energy efficient, weather-tight roof and efficient building design that significantly improves the thermal performance of the roof top, and is known in the industry as a “Cool Roof”.

Wiring is run to prep the roof for the integrated BIPV solar roofing panel that can be added immediately or in the future depending on the customer’s preference.
