Eagle Roofing

Solar Roof

Eagle Roofing Products® and Open Energy Corporation® External link - opens in new window have formed a partnership that has resulted in the Eagle Solar Roof, a system that maintains the aesthetics of a tile roof while generating clean, safe, efficient electricity from the sun. The Eagle Solar Roof is easy to install on residential, commercial or institutional pitched roofs and is appropriate for use in new construction or reroof.
Eagle Solar Roof Benefits and Features at a glance

How solar works

• The sun's energy is gathered by solar panels.
• Cables transfer the energy to the inverter.
• The inverter changes electricity from DC to AC.
• AC Electricity is used in the homeequipment.
  

Solar System Size

• You can create any size system.
• More panels means more solar power produced.
• It just depends on what you want the system to do.
• You can choose to produce enough solar power to reduce your energy bill by 25‰ or 50‰.
• You can choose to produce enough solar power to keep your energy use through the utility below the highest priced rate tiers.
• You can choose to produce enough solar power to stop using energy from the utility grid. That is to say that you can net out to zero electricity supplied by the utility grid.
  

Installation

Installation is simple and can be done by an authorized roofer, electrician and/or solar integrator.
Eagle Solar Roof - Installation

Net Metering

• When your solar system produces more energy than your home uses, the excess is sent into the power grid.
• Your utility will credit you for the excess energy that your solar system produces.
• The inverter changes the electricity from DC into AC.
• At night, when your solar system is not producing energy, you will draw electricity from the grid.
• Your credited electricity will be used before you are charged for using electricity from the grid.

Energy Saving Roof

 How can your roof help you to save money?

By keeping hot air moving out of your roof instead of into your home.

With the Eagle Energy Saving Roof, an air current is created that draws air in at the eave level and out at the ridge. This ventilation of the roof deck helps to reduce heat transfer into your attic and thus into your home. The Eagle Energy Saving Roof is an installation method that utilizes Eagle concrete roof tile and several Eagle accessory products to install the roof in an energy efficient manner. The result means less work for the air conditioner, less expenditure of energy and lower electrical bills for the end user.
Energy Saving Roof Helps Prevent Heat Transfer

Studies Show the Energy Saving Roof Helps Prevent Heat Transfer

According to Dr. Miller of Oak Ridge National Laboratories, a 1995 study by Beal and Chandra essentially showed:

• A 48% reduction in heat transfer into the attic with tile roofs installed using ASV (above sheathing ventilation like the Energy Saving Roof) when compared to a direct nailed asphalt shingle roof.
• A 39% reduction of heat transfer into the attic in comparing concrete tile and asphalt shingles when both products were installed in a direct deck application.

This means that an Eagle Energy Saving Roof can reduce heat transfer into the attic by almost 50%. The result is a significant reduction in the amount of energy required to cool a home and that results in lower electricity bills for the homeowner.

Four simple products

There are only four simple products required to create the Energy Saving Roof:
Eagle Cool Roof Tile - Eagle Roofing Products has Cool Roof Rated tile products available for your home. Cool Roof Rated products have been approved as highly reflective by the Cool Roof Rating Council (CRRC). These products can not only help you meet code requirements, they also provide superior benefits for homeowners and the environment. Eagle's Cool Roof Tile products can provide 10-30 percent savings on energy bills as well as possible additional rebates through local utility companies. Beyond this tangible monetary benefit, Eagle Cool Roof Tile products are also kind to the environment. They help to reduce heat islands, reduce the dissemination of smog producing chemicals and reduce the production of CO2. Ask your roofer about how you can use Eagle Cool Roof Tile on your home.

Ventilated Bird Stop

In addition to elevating the eave course and helping to prevent bird nesting, the Ventilated Bird Stop design allows for air to enter the space between the tile and the roof deck.

The Riser

The Riser is a simple solution to elevating battens. The Riser and a 1"x2" batten create space that allows for ventilation. In addition, The Riser can be used to mark tile courses, helping to reduce labor and expense.

FlexVent

FlexVent provides the ridge ventilation that allows hot air to escape from the roof deck . Beyond the venting function, FlexVent also works as a weather block seal helping to prevent any water intrusion at the ridge.

 Cool Roof Tile

Eagle offers Energy Star and Cool Roof Rating Council (CRRC) approved Cool Roof Tile products.

• Products approved by Energy Star and the CRRC provide superior benefits to homeowners.
• Cool Roof Tile reflects sunlight and heat away from your home, resulting in:
• 10-30% energy savings on air conditioning
• Possible rebates through your utility company. Please consult your local utility to determine which products and applications qualify for a rebate.
• Less air pollution reduces smog producing and global warming chemicals
• The reduction of heat islands around cities and populous areas
• See the Energy Star web site for more information.
