How Your Residential Roof Helps You Save Energy - Adams Roofing Professionals, Inc

To protect your home from the harsh elements day in and day out–that’s the primary function of your roofing system. But what you probably don’t know is that it can also help you keep a more thermally comfortable and energy-efficient home. The premier residential roofer in the area, Adams Roofing Professionals, Inc. shares how your roofing system makes this possible.

Residential Roof

By keeping your attic cool. Proper ventilation is an integral part of roof design. It ensures continuous and efficient airflow throughout the attic by drawing cool outdoor air into the space through the intake vents and letting warm, moisture-laden air escape outside via the exhaust vents. Since heat is prevented from building up inside the attic, it has zero chance of affecting your thermal comfort, allowing you to maintain a pleasant and consistent temperature inside your home. Plus, your air conditioning won’t have to work overtime to cool your home, allowing for reduced energy costs.

By insulating your home. As with the ventilation, sufficient insulation in the attic helps your roof keep your home’s energy costs to a minimum. It does this by preventing outdoor temperatures from reaching your attic. At the same time, it ensures that valuable cooling or heating energy from your home’s interior won’t rise up the attic and escape. Because the attic insulation is so crucial to energy efficiency, you’ll want to have it checked (along with the ventilation) periodically by a reliable roofing contractor.

Proper attic ventilation and insulation help maintain the energy performance of your roofing system. But there are quite a few ways to augment this and make it even more efficient. One simple and effective way is to invest in high-quality asphalt shingles from the area’s GAF® Certified Master Elite® roofing contractor, Adams Roofing Professionals, Inc. Our GAF® Timberline® CS shingles come with advanced reflective technology that eliminates the risk of attic heat buildup while helping you save more on your air conditioning costs. They are ENERGY STAR® qualified, so you’re sure they have exceeded stringent energy performance standards.

I wanted to let you know about an experience I had with one of your employees. I live at 1200 Knottingham Court in Kingsport Estates and apparently, your company is servicing our condo association. My building has had a leak in the entryway for several months and Eddie was dispatched out to have me show him the source of the leak inside. I met him on Friday, September 21st and just wanted to tell you how impressed I was with his friendliness and professionalism. He immediately found the source of the leak and even went up on the roof to show me. He assured me that someone would take care of it as soon as possible and told me he would give the report priority to avoid any further damage. As someone who used to be in Customer Service, I always value a company that hires people that are not only skilled at their trade, but also skilled at interacting with people. Eddie is a great example of that and I wanted you to know so you could tell him what a great job he does! I am so glad that Alma Management chose Adams Roofing to be our roofing contractor!...

Good Afternoon, I am writing to you on behalf of the Mission Hills M-8 Association. I would like to tell you how happy we are with the work that you completed for our Association. Your supervisor Eddie was great. We liked his professionalism and his work ethic. He kept us informed, and delivered on all his promises. Please make sure that any other jobs you do for us include him. Best regards, Joey Mission Hills Management... [more]

Charlie, Thanks very much for replacing the gutter! No one has been out to do it, at least before I left for work this morning. But I will definitely let you know whether it’s done correctly. I am very satisfied with your roofing job. It looks great, and more importantly, there were no leaks when it rained (even though we haven’t gotten really hard rains yet). So, I have been very pleased with my experience with Adams, especially with the professionalism and responsiveness of you and Dan. Thanks.... [more]

I wanted to take a moment to comment on your technician, Eddie. Eddie was assigned to inspect a roof leak I am having in my home in Cobblestone Circle. He was prompt, professional, courteous and informative; everything a customer could ask for when inviting a contractor into their home. Eddie represents Adams Roofing Well; and clearly he is an asset to your company. Kudos to him! Thank you.... [more]
