For the ultimate "Cool Roof" there is now available a new and
innovative thermal protection membrane for tile roofs called "Thermal Control
Membrane for Tile Roofs" (TCMTR). This product is comprised of several
layers of patented membranes and reinforcement scrim which rejects over 95% of
the radiant heat which previously heats up the roofing tiles, then the roof
deck, then the attic. TCMTR not only increases comfort and
significantly reduces energy costs, it virtually allows the bitumen based tile
underlayment to last forever since most of the heat changes direction before it
gets to the black paper.

happen in as little as ten years.
Benefits:
Twenty five year warranty against product
failure
Installed without making any penetrations in your
roof
Water tight
Attic
is significantly cooler
Ducts deliver colder air
APS and SRP bills are cut significantly
Easily integrates with existing tile roof
underlayments
Extends the life of the bitumen impregnated
underlayment
Shown here TCM Tile Underlayment is placed under roof shingles in a
new build project.
This photo depicts one building with TCM Tile Underlayment and
one building without TCM Tile Underlayment there was a 22F difference in deck
temperature. The effects are immediate and long lasting. This is the
path to the "coolest roof" in a hot sunny climate.
Great for metal roofs!
