By protecting roof
membranes from extreme temperature fluctuations and ultraviolet
radiation, a TectaGreen™ green roof can double the life
span of a conventional roof, and provide energy savings by reducing
heating and cooling costs. TectaGreen can also improve site
utilization by reducing the impervious surface area of a building
to increase potential square footage for construction. And,
because TectaGreen conforms to the rigorous Green Building Rating
System standards created by the U.S. Green Building Council
there are inherent savings including Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design (LEED) certification for tax benefits.
The LEED program was created to provide a national standard
for the building industry. The TectaGreen system contributes
directly towards a maximum of 3 points. These points generate
tax credit in many states, including Maryland, New York, and
Massachusetts.
