Green roofs work by providing space for gardening and water features. Green roofs might also have solar panels that are used to collect and store energy to heat water or light the home.

What are the two types of roof systems?
Trying to figure out what the different types of roofs are, what the different roof designs and styles mean, and what roofing materials work best for your home can be overwhelming. There are many varieties to pick from depending on your roof type, the look you are going for, and the amount you can afford to spend. It doesn’t matter what type of roof you or what material you would like to use, EPDM Coatings can repair them all.

What is the best green roof system?
This depends on a number of factors. In most of the United States, you will want a roof with a steep pitch to allow the water to run off quickly. The roof should have a good system for allowing ventilation in the attic. I think a passive ventilation system is better than a mechanical, because when mechanical systems break down, homeowners rarely repair them. Radiant barriers have not been studied enough to make a proper determination of how they effect several parts of the roof system, but I feel that the barriers on the back of the sheathing or the foil sheets is good to install (the paint on system is not good for high humidity areas). As for the roof covering, a lighter colored material is the best for reflecting ultraviolet light. Some metal shingle manufacturers have made claims that their product has done well at improving this factor. By reflecting ultraviolet light, you reduce the heat in the attic. The question also depends on how one defines the term "green roof system", if one means a roof made of ecologically friendly materials, that is one thing. If one means "green roof system", as in a "vegetated roof" or "eco roof" or "green roof", that would mean something completely different.

How are renewable resources being use in a green roof?
I am not aware of any renewable resources being used in green roofs, although it is possible. Green roofs are called green because they are covered with soil and vegetation. The roof surface does not get hot like a regular roof thereby saving energy for cooling the interior. Water is retained by the roof surface which reduces the amount of water required to keep the plants alive.
