Are there any insurance/energy benefits with a Rare Steel Roof?
Absolutely yes!! Metal roofing can save you up to 40% on your annual energy cost. This means you may recoup most, if not all, of your roof investment cost over the lifetime of the roof. Please check our references for the latest updates from your local providers. Some insurance companies now offer discounts up to 30% off premiums especially in high wind and fire areas. Steel is considered a cool roof because it reflects and emits the sun’s heat back to the sky, instead of transferring it to the building below. “Coolness” is measured by two properties; solar reflectance and thermal emittance. In warm climates steel provides a savings in cooling costs.
