Spray Polyurethane Foam
SPF is Sprayed Polyurethane Foam, a closed cell roofing and insulation material that both water proofs and insulates. Sprayed Polyurethane Foam has the highest R-value of any insulation material. SPF can help make your roof leak free and at the same time add exceptional R-value that lowers your energy costs!
Benefits of SPF
-
Seams are one of the major sources of leaks in roof systems and SPF roofs are totally seamless.
-
Water does not travel laterally in SPF roofs as it can in BUR (Built-up roofs with multiple plies of roof felts laminated together with bitumen) or single-ply roofs. A leak in the top membrane of a BUR or single-ply roof will create the spreading of water, saturating the insulation and causing multiple interior leaks. With SPF, even if a hole is punched through the entire two inch membrane, water movement will be restricted to the hole. In most cases repairs can be made with a tube of caulk.
-
Because the SPF roof is lightweight, permeable and fully adhered, normally an old roof does not need to be removed in order to apply a new one. If underlying areas of saturated insulation are found, minimal tear-off may be required.
Reduce Cooling Expenses up to 30%
The average roof absorbs a large portion of the sun's ultraviolet rays as heat. Conklin's white SPF roofing system reflects 85% of the sun's heat, cooling your building and saving you as much as 30% in air conditioning costs.
​
A great return on investment is another important reason to install Conklin's SPF Roofing System. Many satisified builing owners discover that a Conklin roof pays for itself during the warranty period in lower air conditioning costs. Federal tax rebates, tax credits and deduction may also offset your investment. Check with your local utility company, tax advisor, or visit www.energystar.gov for additional details.
