Savings
in Building Cooling
Costs
On untreated
weathered asbestos
roofs, roof cavity
temperatures can
rise to double the
ambient shade
temperature. When
the asbestos roof is
treated with the
white FIBROSEAL
SYSTEM there is an
approximate 80%
reduction in roof
cavity temperatures
when compared to
untreated weathered
asbestos roofs. This
temperature
reduction results in
improved comfort for
the occupants and
considerable savings
in building cooling
costs.
