On The House

Classic Metal Roofing Systems is now a proud sponsor of the Carey Brothers? nationally syndicated ?On The House? home improvement radio show. The brothers can be heard on Saturday mornings on over 160 stations across the country. Podcasts of the program are also available through their website at www.onthehouse.com

?We are very excited to be a part of the Carey Brothers Show,? says Todd Miller, president of Classic Metal Roofing Systems. ?They bring quality information to their listeners and much helpful advice. The popularity of their show is evidenced by the number of callers they have each week.?

In addition to providing good advice on home improvement topics, On the House has many special guests including Dom DeLuise and also Dr. Roof. Dr. Roof speaks with authority each week about roofing topics.

Dr. Roof and one of the Carey brothers will soon be visiting our offices and manufacturing facility in Ohio in order to bring more information about quality residential metal roofing to their thousands of listeners.

Natural gas and coal have long owned the domain of the largest national energy suppliers, yet that may soon be changing.

Solar has already gained ground in states like California where, as of March of this year an amazing 60 percent of the state?s total energy came from solar ? a number that broke records ? and in unexpected places like Germany, which now powers a train entirely from solar energy.

Yet in another unexpected place, solar hit a new milestone. Now, according to the National Grid, almost 25 percent of all electricity used in Great Britain comes from solar power ? an amazing 8.7 gigawatts. Paul Barwell, chief executive officer of the Solar Trade Association concludes, ?This is a colossal achievement ? and sends a very positive message to the U.K. that solar has a strong place in the decarbonization of the U.K. energy sector,?

Not just does is this a record number for solar in the U.K., but also the first time solar panels generated more electricity than nuclear plants.

And perhaps we shouldn?t be surprised. Solar energy has experienced consistent growth fueled not just by innovation like Tesla?s new solar roof, but also a steady decrease in the cost of solar panels, making it no longer out of market reach. Further, in the U.S., more people were employed in generating electricity from solar last year than from coal, oil, and gas combined, accounting for a number larger than the total number of Americans employed by Google, Facebook, and Apple combined.

As long as the sun keep shining, it seems, solar energy will keep growing.

When it comes to fire protection, not all roofing systems are alike. While all systems must meet certain standards, some materials succumb to flame while others are self-extinguishing. Check out this video to see a lab test on some of the most popular roofing materials used today.

The chart below provides a quick overview of the flame-resistance of various roofing materials. While roofing systems are evaluated and tested as a unit, this look at materials is a good baseline for selecting the best system for your fire prevention needs.
