Question
Does Decra's stone-coated roofing qualify for residential energy credits?
I am interested in this roofing product.
Answer
Bill,
Decra makes a great product, but only a few of their colors qualify for the tax credit.
New research has shown that a darker roof that is ventilated above the deck can actually perform better than a lighter color, but Energy Star does not recognize this, so you have to go with a lighter color for the tax credit.
