Title 24 Cool Roof Reports for California Energy Compliance

Call (626) 365-1518 | Alternative Energy Systems

Planning a roofing project or new construction in California? You may need to meet Title 24 Cool Roof requirements—especially in climate zones with high solar heat. At Alternative Energy Systems (AES), we specialize in permit-ready Title 24 Cool Roof compliance reports that make your project easier, faster, and fully code-compliant.

Cool roofs are designed to reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat than traditional roofing materials. This helps reduce air conditioning demand, lower building temperatures, and improve overall energy efficiency. California’s Title 24 Building Energy Code requires specific reflectance and emittance values depending on your climate zone, roof slope, and building type. That’s where AES comes in.

Why Cool Roofs Matter Under Title 24

  1. Energy Efficiency Compliance
    • Cool roofs reduce the heat island effect and help buildings meet energy performance targets.
  2. Required in Certain Climate Zones
    • Zones with high cooling demand require cool roofing for certain residential and nonresidential buildings.
  3. Reflectance and Emittance Standards
    • Roofs must meet minimum Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) values or qualify under performance exceptions.
  4. Permit Approval
    • Without documentation of compliance, your building permit could be denied or delayed.

FAQ: Title 24 Cool Roof Requirements

  1. What is a cool roof?
    A roof designed to reflect sunlight and emit heat more effectively than standard roofing materials.
  2. Is a cool roof required under Title 24?
    Yes, in many climate zones and roof types. Requirements vary by slope, use, and building type.
  3. How do I know if I need a cool roof?
    AES will verify your zone, roof slope, and applicable standards to determine requirements.
  4. What is SRI?
    The Solar Reflectance Index measures how well a roof reflects and emits solar energy. Higher is better.
  5. Can I use a non-cool roof product?
    Sometimes. Performance-based compliance may allow alternatives. AES helps you explore exceptions.
  6. What documents are needed?
    A CF-1R form that includes your roof product’s compliance with SRI and emissivity values.
  7. Is HERS verification required?
    No. Cool roof measures are verified via product documentation, not field testing.
  8. What if I have a flat roof?
    Low-slope roofs (≤2:12) often have stricter cool roof requirements.
  9. What if my city has different rules?
    Some cities enforce stricter rules—AES adjusts your report to match local ordinances.
  10. Do cool roofs lower utility bills?
    Yes. They reduce air conditioning load, especially in hot climates.
  11. Is the report required for reroofing?
    Yes, in many cases. Residential reroofs may trigger Title 24 requirements depending on the scope.
  12. Can AES help me choose a compliant product?
    Yes. We guide you to CRRC-listed products that meet your needs.
  13. What if the city asks for revisions?
    We provide revisions at no extra cost to help pass plan check.
  14. Do you offer discounts for roofers or builders?
    Yes. Loyalty pricing is available for regular clients and high-volume projects.
