He Lowered His Electric Air Conditioning Bill By Painting The Asphalt Shingles On House All White
I lowered my electric air conditioning bill by at least $25 per month by painting the dark red asphalt shingles on my house all white. It reflects heat, keeping the house cooler. Over the years I’ve put 5 coats of paint on the roof using Home Depot exterior white paint. If you look at my house on Google Earth, my white roof really stands out.
