2 What is RoofShade? Your best way to Go Green Your fastest way to reduce energy costs Your smartest way to extend roof life RoofShade is:

3 How It Works RoofShade employs a simple approach to improving energy efficiency by blocking the heat and solar radiation from reaching your building.

4 RoofShade’s Award Winning System The RoofShade’s reflective shade cloth blocks sunlight from reaching the rooftop while allowing air to circulate above the roof surface.

5 Installation Installing RoofShade is quick and easy: Step 1 – Create the wire support grid Step 2 – Install the RoofShade fabric

6 Installation – Step 1 Creating the Wire Support Grid The wire support grid is created by attaching springs to the roof’s parapet and stretching wire from each spring to form a grid.

7 Installation – Step 2 Installing the RoofShade Fabric The RoofShade fabric is installed by attaching the fabric to the wire grid in 2 ft intervals with a brass grommet.

8 What can RoofShade do for me?

9 RoofShade Benefits 1. Save energy and money 2. Reduce your carbon footprint 3. Extend the life of your roof

10 1. Save Energy and Money Prevents over 90% of the sun’s heat and UV radiation from reaching the roof Reduces roof surface temperature by as much as 100 degrees Promotes air circulation between the RoofShade fabric and the roof *When the air above your roof is cooler, your air conditioner doesn’t work as hard, your energy bill goes down, and you end up with more money in your pocket!

11 2. Reduce Your Carbon Footprint Minimize AC usage by blocking the sun’s heat from reaching your rooftop Reduce air conditioning usage by over 40% Qualify for up to 17 LEED points

12 3. Extend The Life of Your Roof Two Primary Causes of Roof Failure: 1. Solar UV Radiation – breaks down the chemical make-up of your roof 2. Roof Temperature Fluctuation – changes in the roof’s temperature cause contraction and expansion in the roof membrane RoofShade will: 1. Prevent 95% of the solar UV radiation from ever reaching your roof 2. Minimize temperature fluctuation by reducing the ambient temperature of your roof by up to 90 degrees

13 What has RoofShade done for other organizations?

14 Case Studies PAN Western Transportation – Las Vegas, NV Flexible Technologies – Orem, UT

15 Case Studies – Pan Western When Pan Western wanted to reduce costs and save energy they came to RoofShade because of the exceptional return on investment the RoofShade system offers. The RoofShade system was installed on the entire 7,000 sq. ft. roof of Pan Western’s company headquarters. The project resulted in annual energy savings of 5.7 kwh per sq ft - an equivalent savings of $3,960! Additionally, the heat stress relief on the roofing membrane saved an additional $3,500. Total 1st year savings: $7,460 or $1.05 per sq ft.

17 Case Studies – Flexible Technologies Flexible Technologies: A custom printing company that wanted to reduce energy expenses. Their single story building houses 25,000 sq. ft. of both office and printing workspace. The building is cooled with 80 tons of roof air conditioning with an additional 40 tons on the ground. Part of the existing rooftop is covered with a dark colored built up roof/tarpaper painted with reflective paint. The remaining roof surface is covered with a white “Cool Roof”.

18 Total AC energy usage was decreased by over 50%. Case Study: Flexible Technologies Actual air conditioning kwh Usage: 2008 vs 2009

19 Frequently Asked Questions

20 FAQ’s 1. Can the RoofShade stand up to wind and weather? 2. Is roof access still possible with the RoofShade installed? 3. How long will the RoofShade last? 4. Does the RoofShade have a guarantee? 5. How much money can I save by installing RoofShade? 6. Is financing available? 7. Will the RoofShade damage my roof or affect my roof’s warranty?

22 2 – Is roof access still possible with the RoofShade installed? Yes! The RoofShade is mounted on a wire grid 8 inches above the rooftop at 5 ft. intervals. The wire has springs at each junction to allow the fabric to be depressed to the rooftop. The RoofShade can be walked on, or can easily be removed, if the roof surface must be accessed.

23 3 – How long will the RoofShade last? The RoofShade fabric is treated with fire retardant, as well as weather protection, and will last more than 10 years.

24 4 – Does the Roofshade have a warranty? Yes! RoofShade, Inc. provides a 10-year warranty for each installation.

25 5 – How much money can I save by installing RoofShade? The amount you will save depends on the size of your building, how well it is insulated, and your air-conditioning equipment. It will typically be 20% to 50% of your air-conditioning expense. After inspecting your facility, a RoofShade technican will be able to give you a more exact projection of your savings.
