Join us for Part 1: Technical Webinar – Keeping it Cool: Using Cool Roofs to Combat Heat Islands and Save Energy

Sarah Schneider and Audrey McGarrell from Cool Roof Rating Council

This presentation will provide an overview of how cool roofs work to keep individuals, neighborhoods, and cities cooler while producing a multitude of other benefits; how these materials are evaluated and labeled; and how third-party product ratings support the implementation of policies and programs that require or promote the use of these materials as strategies for reducing building energy use and mitigating urban heat islands.

About the Cool Roof Rating Council

The CRRC is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization formed in 1998 to develop fair, accurate, and credible methods for evaluating and labeling the radiative properties of roofing products. In addition to conducting research and education about the impacts of reflective building materials, the CRRC also operates a third-party roof rating program that includes a public directory of rated roofing products.

  •  Sarah Schneider is the Deputy Director of the CRRC. She oversees the organization’s policy and standards development, code advocacy, and outreach and education activities.
  • Audrey McGarrell is the Project Coordinator for the CRRC. She manages the CRRC Wall Product Rating Program and the CRRC Technical Committee. She also supports education activities and oversees the CRRC’s social media.
