Question: What shingle color should I select to save energy?
Linda writes from Titusville, Florida: "I have selected your Duration Premium Shingles to be installed on my home. My home has low slopes. I'm trying to decide on the color and would like to save as much energy as possible with my selection so I've narrowed the choices down to your two lighter colored roofs of Antique Silver and Amber. How can I find out the solar reflectance of each of those colors? Is there much difference between the two as far as energy savings?"
Answer: We do not have any reflectance data on Duration™ Premium shingles. We recommend going with the lighter color, which is Antique Silver. That color is not available in every area but it is available in your Zip Code.
