		<description><![CDATA[Reduced Installation Cost, Energy Efficient, Cash Rebates, Virtually Maintenance Free, Clean, Safe &#038; Non-Disruptive Installation, Long Term Durability, The Best Warranty]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 class="blue">Here is YOUR Return On Investment</h2>
<p><img src="http://tedsqualityroofing.ca/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/dollar_bills-e1264564851830.jpg" alt="" title="dollar_bills" width="541" height="252" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-259" /></p>
<h3>Reduced Installation Cost</h3>
<p>Pre-fabrication of the entire system greatly speeds up the installation process.  Combined with the reduced labour and expense required for the costly tear-off and disposal of the old roof, this means that at the end of the day more of your money is still sitting on your rooftop, instead of driving away in a truck!</p>
<h3>Energy Efficient</h3>
<p>Duro-Last has the Highest Initial Reflectivity Rating (87%) given by the Energy Star Roof Products Program.  Combined with the Highest Sustained Reflectivity (85%) after three years of weathering, Duro-Last boasts the highest ratings of any single ply membrane.  This can translate into building energy consumption savings of up to 40%!</p>
<h3>Cash Rebates</h3>
<p>Federal and/or Provincial incentives may be available for installing an Energy Star roofing system, and increasing the R-value of your roof.</p>
<h3>Virtually Maintenance Free</h3>
<p>Resistant to fire, water, chemicals, grease, punctures, high winds, ponding water, extreme temperatures, (and just about everything else!), Duro-Last is Tough Stuff.  Unlike other roofing materials which may require regular repairs and maintenance, a Duro-Last roof will stand up to Mother Nature and whatever she throws at it! </p>
<h3>Clean, Safe &#038; Non-Disruptive Installation</h3>
<p>Building occupants will hardly know a new roof is being applied because installation is clean, quiet, and safe. There are no loud machines, no hazardous materials, no noxious fumes, no hot tar, and no mess. In many cases, a new Duro-Last roofing system can be installed over an existing roof without an expensive tear-off, virtually eliminating the dust, falling debris, and other hazards involved in roof removal.  </p>
<h3>Long Term Durability</h3>
<p>The Duro-Last system ensures protection from interior damage costs through leak-proof performance.  Not only that, it can actually help extend the useful life of other building components within by keeping moisture out while reflecting ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) radiation. </p>
<h3>The Best Warranty</h3>
<p>The Duro-Last 15-year commercial warranty comes straight from the company that has manufactured over a billion square feet of roofing membrane since 1978.  With a Duro-Last roof, you pay nothing for material or labour for warranted repairs or replacement!</p>

<h2>Energy</h2>
<h3 class="blue">Energy Efficient Roof: Delivered by Reflective Roofing</h3>
<p>A high-performance roof can be a powerful asset in reducing energy consumption by becoming an energy efficient roof &#8211; a Cool Roof. When used with appropriate insulation on low-sloped or flat roofs, a high-emissivity Duro-Last Cool Zone reflective roofing system can:</p>
<ul>
<li>Reduce building energy consumption by up to 40 percent</li>
<li>Improve insulation performance to reduce winter heat loss and summer heat gain</li>
<li>Preserve the efficiency of rooftop air conditioning</li>
<li>Potentially reduce HVAC capacity requirements</li>
<li>Decrease the effects of Urban Heat Islands and related urban air pollution</li>
</ul>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-124" title="environment" src="http://tedsqualityroofing.ca/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/environment.jpg" alt="environment" width="136" height="136" /></p>
<h2>Environment</h2>
<h3 class="blue">Better for the Environment – Inside and Out</h3>
<p>A popular definition for sustainable roofing was developed during a workshop held at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in 1996: <em>A roof system that is designed, constructed, maintained, rehabilitated and demolished with an emphasis throughout its life cycle on using natural resources efficiently and preserving the global environment</em>.</p>
<p><strong>The Duro-Last Cool Zone roofing system can minimize environmental impact in several ways:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Duro-Last is a member of the U.S. Green Building Council (<a href="http://www.usgbc.org/" target="_blank">www.usgbc.org</a>). The USGBC’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) voluntary rating system is an increasingly popular means for helping building owners determine environmental performance of building components. The Cool Zone system can help in obtaining credits toward LEED and LEED-EB certification.</li>
<li>Our closed-loop manufacturing process recycles production scrap, benefiting waste reduction</li>
<li>Because the roofing system is lightweight, less fuel is needed to transport it to the job site than other systems</li>
<li>The Duro-Last Cool Zone system can often be installed over an existing roof, reducing waste, landfill space and disposal costs. Oak Ridge National Laboratories recently estimated that 9-10 million tons of non-recyclable roofing waste is sent to U.S. landfills every year</li>
<li>Duro-Last offers a “Recycle Your Roof” program, which can reduce disposal costs of existing PVC roof membrane tear-offs when a tear-off is required.</li>
<li>At the end of its life as a roof, the Duro-Last Cool Zone roofing system can be recycled into other useful products such as specialty flooring (as demonstrated by Oscoda Plastics Inc., Duro-Last’s sister company) and other products.</li>
</ul>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-130" title="endurance" src="http://tedsqualityroofing.ca/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/endurance.jpg" alt="endurance" width="136" height="136" /></p>
<h2>Endurance</h2>
<h3 class="blue">Endurance That Passes the Test of Time</h3>
<p>In terms of High-Performance Roofing, endurance is the ultimate reflection of the performance of every roofing component in terms of reliability, water absorption, wind and fire resistance, maintenance, and repair. No matter how “cool” or “green” a roof is, it still has to protect the building – for years – in all types of weather – a reality that is sometimes neglected in sustainability discussions.</p>
<p>If you’re looking for a roof that will last, consider our track record. More than one billion square feet of Duro-Last membrane have been installed throughout the U.S. since the late 1970s – and many of these roofs are still in service. What makes a Duro-Last Cool Zone roofing system so durable? <strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Each roof we make is:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Resistant to water, fire, chemicals, grease, and punctures</li>
<li>Able to stand up to all types of weather – including high winds and extremes of hot and cold</li>
<li>Virtually maintenance free, unlike other roof materials that may require regular patching and repairs</li>
<li>Reinforced with a high-density weft-insertion scrim for exceptional strength and durability</li>
<li>Confidently backed by the industry’s best warranties. Duro-Last protects commercial and industrial building owners with either a 15-year full warranty or a 20-year prorated warranty. Both are transferable, and both provide maximum protection. Our standard warranty includes coverage for consequential damages that result from defects in the Duro-Last material and/or installation.</li>
</ul>
<p>Not only does a Duro-Last Cool Zone roof perform well over the years, it can actually help extend the useful life of other building components. By keeping moisture out while reflecting ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) radiation, it can help to protect underlying insulation and the roofing substrate from deterioration.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-136" title="economics" src="http://tedsqualityroofing.ca/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/economics.jpg" alt="economics" width="136" height="136" /></p>
<h2>Economics</h2>
<h3 class="blue">Better Economics over the Long Haul</h3>
<p>While some types of roofing may have lower initial costs, the true costs of a roofing system are measured over its total life cycle. These include maintenance and repair costs, energy savings, and tear-off and disposal costs. Clearly, economics is a very important criterion for building owners, and High-Performance Roofing systems must be economical if they are to become viable, real-world options.</p>
<p>A Duro-Last Cool Zone roofing system delivers excellent life-cycle economics. <strong>Key benefits include:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Reduced installation costs through custom factory prefabrication</li>
<li>Low maintenance and repair costs</li>
<li>Protection from interior damage costs through leak-proof performance</li>
<li>Elimination of extended warranty costs</li>
<li>Savings incurred through reduced energy consumption, and related rebates or incentives</li>
</ul>
<h2><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-139" title="engineering" src="http://tedsqualityroofing.ca/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/engineering.jpg" alt="engineering" width="136" height="136" />Engineering</h2>
<h3></h3>
<h3 class="blue">Expert Engineering Enables Long-Lasting, Money-Saving Performance</h3>
<p>Smart, coordinated engineering and design is not only the essential enabler for the other “E’s” of High-Performance Roofing, it is the key to what the Department of Energy calls “whole-building design,” which integrates all the subsystems and parts of the building to work more effectively together from “cradle to cradle.”</p>
<p>Every Cool Zone roof is engineered as a completely integrated system, prefabricated to the exact measurements of each building. Not only is up to 85 percent of membrane seaming completed in a factory-controlled environment, roof stacks, flashings, and edge details are also completed at the factory and shipped to the building site as part of the complete roofing system. The few remaining seams are then hot-air welded on-site by an approved contractor and inspected by a Duro-Last technical representative before a warranty is issued.</p>
<p>Thanks to the precision fabrication of the Cool Zone roofing system, installation is much faster and less disruptive than for a typical “roll-goods” roof. The installation process is quiet, with no noxious fumes or flames, so building occupants can continue with their regular routines.</p>
