A simple way to understand solar heat exposure at the building envelope, and where a reflective coating is designed to make a difference.
Building surfaces exposed to direct sun absorb a portion of incoming solar radiation as heat. NusCoolWall™ is designed to reflect part of that incoming solar energy at the coated surface, which may help moderate surface heat build-up as part of a broader building comfort and cooling-load strategy.
Solar radiation reaches the building envelope.
Conventional dark or heat-absorbing surfaces may retain more solar heat.
NusCoolWall™ is designed to reflect part of the incoming solar energy.
Reduced surface heat absorption may support lower heat build-up and improved thermal management.
Actual results depend on substrate, colour, building design, climate, orientation and application quality.
NusCoolWall™ is designed to reflect a portion of solar heat at the coated surface. It does not eliminate the need for air-conditioning, and it does not guarantee a specific temperature reduction, energy saving or payback period. Actual outcomes depend on substrate, colour, building design, climate, orientation, application quality and site conditions, and should be discussed with a local applicator or partner as part of project assessment.
