FAQ: Do Cool Roof Shingles Really Reduce Energy Bills?

Q: What are cool roof shingles?
Cool roof shingles are made with reflective materials that bounce more sunlight away from your roof. This keeps your attic cooler and lowers the heat that enters your home.

Q: Do reflective shingles make a real difference in Florida?
Yes. Florida’s intense sun causes roofs to absorb a lot of heat. ENERGY STAR-rated shingles can reflect up to 25% more sunlight than standard shingles. This helps keep your attic cooler by as much as 50°F, especially in cities like Jacksonville, Tampa, and Miami.

Q: How do cool shingles help cut energy bills?

• Lower attic temperatures reduce strain on your AC

• Less cooling means lower electricity use

• You save money every month during the long Florida summer

• Roofs last longer when not constantly baking under extreme heat

Q: Can any roof get cool shingles?
Most asphalt shingle roofs can be upgraded with cool roof options. At Roof Nuts, we install reflective shingles that meet ENERGY STAR guidelines and help you qualify for energy-saving rebates.

Q: How much can I save on cooling costs?
