If you’re thinking of getting a low slope or flat roof, you might want to consider thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) roofing as one of your options. This type of roof is a great choice because of its affordability and energy-efficient benefits. Many contractors also recommend the TPO roof as it is very easy to install compared to other types.
To learn more about the functions and advantages of a TPO roof, read this guide prepared by Quality Assurance Roofing.
TPO roofing systems are typically known for their bright white energy-efficient and ultraviolet (UV) reflective characteristics. They are also able to resist roof damage, such as ponding water and harsh winds. It’s important to note that TPO roofs have a single-ply system as well. This means the TPO is a single-membrane system, and it is the lone water barrier of the roof.
Since TPO roofs can help reduce carbon footprint at a low cost, business owners prefer using this roof type for their buildings. TPO roofs can also be installed on residential homes, but some manufacturers only provide warranties on commercial or industrial buildings. Depending on the manufacturer and the thickness of the TPO membrane, the warranties for TPO roofs may range from 20 to 30 years.
Many roofing materials can withstand heat damage, but if you’re looking for an economical option, a TPO roof is the best choice for you. TPO can also help you save money on your utility bills as well. No matter what roof color you choose, TPO roofs can reflect the sunlight and protect your home or building against UV radiation.
Due to the flexibility and durability of TPO roofs, they can resist corrosion, growth of mold and dirt buildup. The installation process is also very inexpensive and simple, and it can be welded around chimneys or other protrusions. TPO roofs can also be environmentally friendly as manufacturers use old layers that have run their course to create new ones.
