How Energy-Efficient Roofing Can Lower Your Electric Bill

See how an energy-efficient roof can reduce your monthly energy costs. Learn which roofing materials and coatings perform best in hot climates.


A Smarter Roof Saves You Money

Your roof plays a big role in your home’s energy use. The right materials and insulation can keep your house cooler in summer and warmer in winter — lowering your bills and extending HVAC life.

How Energy-Efficient Roofing Works

Energy-efficient roofs reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat. This reduces indoor temperatures, meaning your air conditioner doesn’t have to work as hard.
Key features include:

  • Reflective roof coatings

  • Light-colored or “cool” shingles

  • Proper attic ventilation

  • Radiant barriers under the decking

Best Roofing Options for Energy Savings

  • Metal Roofing: Reflects sunlight and cools quickly after sunset.

  • TPO Roofing: Great for flat or low-slope roofs, reflects UV rays.

  • Light-Colored Shingles: Absorb less heat and can lower attic temperatures by up to 20°F.

Bonus: Environmental Benefits

Energy-efficient roofs reduce your home’s carbon footprint and may qualify for local tax incentives or rebates, depending on your area.
