"Cool" shingles versus 30-yr with radiant barrier | Ask The Experts Forum

Guest User 7/20/2009	I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I need to re-roof before closing escrow and I'm confused as to the best and quickest way to achieve a "cool" roof. I had originally wanted to go with Certtanteed's Solaris shingles but they take 60-90 for delivery. I don't have that time. Is a 30-year roof with a radiant barrier just as effective as the Solaris shingles?	Share Or copy this URL: https://www.metalroofing.com/spirit/comment/13590/find/
