Going Green?
Owners and managers who wish to display commitment to the environment and reduce operating costs use LEED certification as their guide.
LEED certification (www.leedbuilding.org) provides nationally recognized, independent, third-party verification that a building project meets the highest green building and performance measures. Rating points are awarded for sustainable features in five categories: building site; water efficiency; energy and atmosphere; materials and resources; and indoor environmental quality.
In addition to lowering the impact on the environment and reducing operating costs, LEED certified buildings qualify for tax rebates, zoning allowances, and other incentives.
Re-roofing and performing regular roof maintenance are both excellent ways to earn and maintain LEED points. As a pioneer in "cool roofing" techniques, Platinum Roofing is well versed in LEED requirements and remains on the leading edge for developing and utilizing the latest in sustainable roofing products and procedures.
Check this page periodically for updates on the LEED rating system and news about the latest ways to keep your roof clean and green.
