WASHINGTON, Feb. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The EPDM Roofing Association (ERA) is recommending that Federal, state and local governments, as well as regulatory bodies, pause the development and implementation of reflective roofing and cool roofing mandates. This recommendation from ERA is based on the findings of two studies funded by the Association which attempted to measure the efficacy of reflective or "cool" roofing as a mitigation strategy against the Urban Heat Island effect, or UHI. These studies showed that complex and inconsistent temperature assessment protocols are being utilized in virtually all UHI evaluations, making comparisons of efficacy problematic.  

Key Points: 
  • This recommendation from ERA is based on the findings of two studies funded by the Association which attempted to measure the efficacy of reflective or "cool" roofing as a mitigation strategy against the Urban Heat Island effect, or UHI.
  • We must develop a consistent way to measure the impact of reflective roofs compared to other UHI mitigation strategies.
  • For the initial study, ERA contracted with ICF, an independent consulting firm with experience in climate change, data analysis, and building science.
  • Additionally, there was no consistent comparison of the Impact of urban tree canopy, roofs, hardscape, asphalt surfaces, and insulation thickness.
