 GO-GREEN with Metro Cool Colors or
 Above Sheathing Ventilation (ASV) Design

 

CRRC (Cool Roof Ratings Council) lists Metro colors that have been independently tested to meet the CRRC 20% Initial & Aged Rating Performance for Reflectivity. Some municipalities may offer discounts off of your utility bills if you can show proof-of-purchase of a CRRC rated product like Metro in the five (5) colors listed — Driftwood, Mission Gold, Oak, Pearl White & Aspen.

 

ENERGY STAR® — Metro Roof Products (Tile, Shake and Shingle panels) are now available in highly reflective Energy Star compliant colors — PEARL WHITE, ASPEN, MISSION GOLD, DRIFTWOOD & OAK. Other colors are in the works so check back soon for more information. Energy Star® requires products meet an Initial Reflectance rating of 25% and 15% after being aged for three (3) years.

ENERGY STAR® Rated Products are only valid in the United States of America.

 

The roofs above were installed using Metro’s Energy Star Rated Colors.

ASV — The unique design of the Metro panels allows them to be installed Batten-Less or as a Batten-System, both methods create an approximate average air-space beneath the panels and “Above the Roof Deck” that provides energy efficiency equal to Energy Star reflectance levels irrelevant of the color. Review the detailed 12-month+ study performed by DOE (Department of Energy) - ORNL (Oakridge National Laboratory) that explains this performance.

GREEN DATA SHEET — Green thinking starts at the top. This environmentally focused flyer provides the basic information on Metro's products and how they interact comfortably with the environment.

WHY METRO – SMART-Ventilation ASV — This data sheet shows a cross-section detail of the Above Sheathing Ventilation (ASV), and how this can eliminate the need to install a highly reflective roof while still meeting the new CA Title-24 Energy Code requirements.
