When properly installed, stone-coated metal roofs offer a range of benefits over traditional roofing materials.
Stone-coated metal roof tiles are known to last a long time, with a lifespan ranging from 40-70 years. This is compared to asphalt shingles, which need to be replaced approximately every 20 years. By investing in a metal roof, you're making a long-term investment in your home.
Stone-coated metal roof tiles can withstand adverse weather conditions such as gusting winds, heavy rain, and hail. Despite its reputation as a heavy material, metal roofing is actually lightweight at 50 to 150 pounds per square.
Unlike other roofing materials, such as asphalt, steel roofs are virtually maintenance-free! By creating a thick shield around your home, they protect it from harsh weather conditions and eliminate most of the repair costs associated with traditional roofing.
One common misconception about metal roofs is that they get too hot in the summer and conduct heat into the home. In reality, metal roofing reflects heat from the sun, reducing the energy cost needed to keep your home cool. This also protects your home from ultraviolet rays. Check out this article from the Metal Roofing Alliance for more information on how you can reduce energy costs with a steel roof.
Stone-coated steel roofing offers a wide variety of colors, textures, and designs to complement almost any style of home. You can feel good about both the safety and the appearance of your roof! Check out this product lineup from Metro Roof Products to get a look at some popular stone-coated roofing finishes.
Quacent is a world leading panelized/modular prefab house provider for 17 years to 50+ countries. Our BIPV (building integrated photovoltaic) dept. is specilized in BIPV products and use the brand of Top Energy®. Currently, we have released 3 Serials of Top Energy 2 in 1 solar tile/shingles, which are working with stone coated metal tile, stand seam steel roofing, and asphalt shingles. Those are all good to be used for new or replaced villa roofing, slopped roof. The advantage of our solar tile is: solar and tile 2 in 1, more aesthetic, easy to install (same to roofing), long life (steel base，50+ years), safe (no leakage, wind-resistant), material saving and labor saving., etc. Every tile can generate power. Live green become easy.
BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaics) and BAPV (Building Applied Photovoltaics) are two types of photovoltaic systems that differ in their installation methods. BIPV systems are integrated into the building structure and serve as a building material, while BAPV systems are applied to the building surface as an external layer. In summary, BIPV systems replace conventional building materials, while BAPV systems are added on top of existing building materials.
Our stone coated metal shingles can be used for more than 50 years. The Solar PV can be used for 25 years. (Permit to have 3% damp yearly) We provide 10-year replacement warranty for our shingles and solar for defective and broken. We provide 25 year warranty for the peak performance for the PV modules. (terms and conditions apply)
Top Energy Serial A 2 in 1 solar tile is recommended to be used for sloped roof (more than 15 degree), or renovated roof. For Solar tile, the best direction is to face the sun. So, south face section is the best, east and west are also ok if you need more space for the solar.. We suggest to install the regular tile for North Face.（above info for the Northern Hemisphere countries.the southern hemisphere countries on the contrary)(all directions of the roof can be installed in the equatorial countries )
Our stone coated metal tiles & the 2 in 1 solar tiles are pretty easy to be installed. The installation is similar to regular clay tile, but lighter & faster. However, for the 2 in 1 solar tiles installation, we still suggest you to hire an electrician to check at the start, middle and end. Generally speaking, one experienced worker should be able to install the stone coated metal roofing around 20-30 square meter (from the batten), and solar tile 15-25 square meters per day. We can send you the intallation video.
Dalian Quacent provides patented BIPV solar roof tile solutions that integrate energy generation with architecture, delivering efficient, safe, and cost-effective solar roofing systems.
