With the onset of climate change causing a shift in global weather patterns, the recent Chinese New Year period certainly turned many houses into saunas. How is that possible, since the roof forms a shield from the sun’s hot rays?

Well, most roofs are built using the conventional method of cement mortar without a heat barrier. This increases heat retention in the house, which subsequently causes the indoor temperature to rise. Most Malaysians solve the problem of a warm indoors by switching on the air conditioning units, which is a temporary but not cost-effective solution.

So what’s the best way to keep your house cool, save electricity AND money at the same time? Sound too good to be true? Well, here’s MONIER CoolRoof® to the rescue.

MONIER CoolRoof®, a system of MONIER Energy Efficient Roofing Solutions, is a sustainable system that limits heat transfer through the roof by creating a natural airflow and heat barrier. MONIER CoolRoof® is able to reduce the temperature of your home by up to 10°C compared to other homes in Malaysia, and this has been validated through research by the R&D team in Malaysia and Europe.

Naturally, that means you do not need to use as much air-conditioning for cooling purposes and this translates into a monthly savings of up to 30% in electricity bills! Needless to say, this also means a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and subsequently benefits the environment.

What can you expect from MONIER CoolRoof®:

• Up to 10°C cooler inside
• Reduce up to 60% of air-conditioning usage
• Save up to 30% of electricity bill
• Less than 2 years payback period
  

While cooling your home with MONIER CoolRoof, why not harness the sun’s rays to generate hot water and introduce more natural sunlight into
the home?

The MONIER SolarRoof, which comprises two key components namely MONIER Solar Water Heating System and MONIER ToplightTM, converts solar energy to household benefits, without the need for electricity.

MONIER Solar Water Heating System maximises the heat from the sun to generate hot water, while MONIER Toplight™ is a translucent roof tile which illuminates homes with natural sunlight, minimising the need for artificial light (one piece of MONIER Toplight™ = one 75W light bulb). Also, with our roofing expertise in project management and product development, MONIER can ensure that your MONIER SolarRoof is designed and installed properly; leaving your roof LEAK FREE.

Cooler home, better savings and contribute towards preservation of the environment –with MONIER, the worldwide leader in roofing solutions and pioneer of green technology in the industry, you can have all those at the same time.
