Roof Materials and Overhangs Built Green® Tip Sample Clauses

Roof Materials and Overhangs Built Green® Tip. A 30-year roof system saves homeowners money in replacement costs, and reduces the use of landfills due to the longevity of the product. Many durable roofing systems are now being offered with up to a 50 year lifespan. Several roofing products now come with a certain minimum percentage of recycled content in them by default. Recycled content roofing material reduces the use of new resources and waste in landfills. Recycled rubber roofing systems can contain approx. 95% recycled materials. From 600 – 1000 rubber tires are used in the production of rubber roofing for an average sized home. Details Roof forms are to be consistent with the architectural style of the home. The roof is the greatest source of potential heat gain. Light-coloured and reflective roof surfaces are the most effective design strategy to minimize heat gain, and lower cooling demands and costs. Roof overhangs on the south side of the home should be sized to provide shade in the summer, yet allow sunlight and warmth inside the home during the winter. Overhangs of sufficient size also prevent water from draining directly onto the home and its foundation. Roof overhangs are to be proportionate to the design of the home. The minimum allowable roof overhang is 18” or as allowed by the DRC to interpret the style of home.
