VersiGard® Cool Gray EPDM
About VersiGard Cool Gray EPDM
Roof membrane color plays a crucial role in a building’s energy performance. In cooling-dominant southern climates, black membranes can increase energy costs, while in heating-dominant northern climates, white membranes can do the same. Versico's VersiGard Cool Gray EPDM bridges this gap by offering a balanced solution for mixed climates. It combines the reflectivity of lighter membranes with the thermal benefits of darker ones, without sacrificing the trusted benefits of EPDM.
VersiGard Cool Gray Video Case StudyWhat are heating and cooling degree days?
Heating and cooling degree days are metrics used to estimate the energy demand required to heat or cool a building. They are calculated based on the difference between the daily outdoor temperature and a baseline indoor temperature (65° F) typically assumed to be comfortable for most people. Using the accompanying map, it can be determined where black EPDM can be utilized to reduce heating costs, Cool Gray EPDM can be utilized when there are an equal amount of heating and cooling days, and white EPDM can be utilized to reduce air conditioning costs.
