In April of 2010, we installed a white TPO membrane on a portion of this highschool.  TPO is a highly reflective roofing material.  The reflectivity of this membrane helps to keep the interior temperature of this school cool, resulting in less energy consumption and money savings. 

This photo shows our flat roofing crew installing TPO on this school.  The TPO membrane is fastened with screws and plates over a half inch layer of insulation.  The next TPO sheet will conceal the screws and plates that hold the metal down. 

Brady Roofing chooses Versico's TPO as our membrane of choice.  This is because Versico's TPO membranes carry the Energy Star rating, and succeeded in exceeding the guidelines to meet that rating.  TPO is solar reflective and has a thermal emmitance level of .8 to .9, depending on the color. 

Versico's TPO is also listed as a CRRC (Cool Roof Rating Council) certified product.  This TPO is also 100% recyclable, as well as made from safe materials that do not harm the environment.  The reflective value of TPO will save this high school a lot of money over the years.
