GRU's Rebate Program

Reflective Roof Coating Rebate

This rebate is to encourage the application of reflective roof coating to mobile home roofs.

Reflective roof coatings help seal the roof of a mobile home while at the same time provide excellent reflectivity to reduce radiant heat gain to the roof's surface. The coating is typically applied by a roller in two coats and can be installed by the home or business owner in most cases. The benefits of the coating include reducing heat absorption and increasing the reflectance of the roof surface, which reduces the energy use of the air conditioner and helps to lower your electric bill.
