The short answer is no…BUT! If you add a thermal break and a Radiant barrier you can easily achieve a 50 plus drop in attic temperature. We have consistently dropped attic temps from the 160-degree mark to about 103 degrees and it doesn’t matter if the roof is asphalt shingle, wood shake or metal roof.
This home had over 160-degree attic temperature which made the upstairs master bedroom unbearable. We installed our “system” and during the hottest week on record, the master bedroom was the coolest it had ever been. This “system” really works!
