logo_mark.pngIt's not about the color although green roofs are nice to look at, especially if they are made of steel. Boulder based company, 3rRoofing is all about environmentally friendly roofing. We all know that heat rises, right out of the heater, up to the ceiling and eventually through the roof. The folks at 3rRoofing state that the choices we make about roofing material, ventilation, and renewable energy systems can have a profound effect on the amount of coal, natural gas and other non-renewable fuels we burn. Makes sense. "Green roofing is about resource conservation and reducing energy consumption."

From 3rRoofing.com: "Green roofing is about reducing the energy consumption of non-renewable fuels and about producing renewable energy through PV-Solar-electric and Thermal-Solar roof and exterior applied systems. There are many excellent field-tested roofing materials available that have high recycled content. Steel and other metals are among those. And, while the industry of recycling old asphalt shingle and cedar shake roofing material is limited here in Colorado and across the USA, there is a growing interest and new opportunities to reuse these roofing products."

3rRoofing specializes in researching the various aspects of green roofing and providing you with the information to make the right choice for your home and budget. For more information or a roofing estimate, you can contact them via their website at: www.3rroofing.com or call them directly at (303)444-5640.

3rRoofing's pneumatic nailer of choice is the Hitachi NV45AB2 Roofing Nailer. Dennis at 3rRoofing states that the Hitachi Nailers are the most durable, lightweight (5.5 pounds) and well-balanced. And how convenient, right now Hitachi is having a rebate extravaganza! Click here to learn more about it.
