SRP Cool Roof Rebate™

Using highly reflective paint, cool roofs offer enhanced durability and reduce the amount of solar heat transmitted into your home. A properly installed cool roof can improve your home’s comfort while reducing cooling demand by 10%–15%*.

SRP wants to help keep your home cool for less this summer. Get a rebate of 30 cents per square foot (up to $600) on installed cool roofing material.

The Department of Energy (DOE) offers a Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) available for households with lower incomes that qualify for Supplemental Security Income, Aid to Families with Dependent Children, and other income eligibility criteria. This program includes a home energy assessment and common home improvements such as applying roof coatings to flat roofs that will reduce heat transmission through the roof. Please see the link for additional information.

Program eligibility  

• Home must be cooled with central or mini-split electric refrigerated air conditioning or evaporative cooling. 
• Roof products must be rated by the Cool Roof Rating Council (CRRC). Information on qualified rated roofing products can be found at coolroofs.org/directory/roof. 
• Cool roof products must be tested and labeled by the CRRC. Accepted cool roofing products must have a three-year Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) of greater than or equal to 86; OR an initial Solar Reflectance number greater than or equal to .83; OR a three-year Solar Reflectance number greater than or equal to .70. Performance specification numbers can be found in the CRRC rated products listing at coolroofs.org/directory/roof.  
• The home must have a low-sloped roof less than or equal to a 2:12 pitch and the product must have a minimum seven-year warranty.

Rebate calculation 

The SRP Cool Roof Rebate is paid per square foot of installed cool roofing materials. The rebate amount for a low-slope roof with products meeting the rebate specifications is 30 cents per square foot of roof coverage, up to $600. 

Rebate Calculation Example: 

A cool roof is installed on a low-slope roof measuring 1,500 square feet. The roofing material used has a three-year SRI of 88. 

Estimated Rebate = 1,500 sq. ft. x $0.30/sq. ft. = $450
