How do Cool Roofing materials and reflective coatings impact performance??
Dawn Solar products have been designed, tested and certified with roofing materials coated with Cool Roof Finishes that are quickly becoming an industry standard. The Dawn Solar System is highly scaleable and our sizing tables incorporate the effects of the cool roofing materials. The Dawn Solar thermal products work synergistically with both the roofing industries Cool Roof finishes and PV systems by converting the roof assembly from a passively cooled system to an actively cooled system. Solar energy in the form of heat that is detrimental to the buildings performance and PV performance is harvested by the Dawn Solar Thermal system and transferred off the roof portion of the building envelope into the buildings domestic hot water system.
