Cooler Roof

This might be useful for those who could afford it. It also help us to understand the transfer of heat that causes high temp in farm. This catalog was given by a friend. It would be good knowledge for all.

MONIER CoolRoof®

Want a home that stays cool indoor no matter how hot it is outdoors but dread the high electricity bills?

Want to contribute to a healthier environment but not sacrifice your family daily comfort?

MONIER CoolRoof® Technique is your solution. MONIER CoolRoof® Technique is a system which reflects heat and encourages airflow to reduce heat retention thus keeping your home cool all day long.

HEAT TRANSFER MECHANISM

Heat radiated from the sun is absorbed by the roof surface in which the ceiling of the house absorbs the radiated heats. This will cause the temperature in the attic space to rise and the living spaces to be hot. This mechanism of heat transfer is also known as radiation, convection and conduction.

THE COOLING EFFECT

As a natural way to prevent excessive heat from building up in the house, MONIER CoolRoof® Technique uses technology of construction, heat reflection and ventilation to cool the living spaces of the house. With no application of mechanical devices.

The MONIER Roof Tiles is to ensure a leak-free roof. In this case, the usage of the technologically advanced RadenShield™ reflects the radiant heat up to 95% while the counter battens create a larger air passageway as well as air insulation gap. The installation of MONIER’s Ridge & Hip Dry Fix Solution opens up all the ridges and hips length as a ventilation outlet, creating a natural airflow for the hot air while MONIER Pest Guard™ is to allow maximum air inlet.
