Solar roofs 2-in-1
From the series "Roofing - trends 2021".
Choosing a roofing material is one of the most important decisions for future homeowners of a new house. Nowadays, however, it's no longer just about the functionality or durability of the material, but also about design, ecology and even compatibility with smart technologies. What roofing materials fit perfectly with the trends in the construction industry in 2021? In short, we are in for quite a change.
Fashion in the construction industry is governed by its own rules. Well-known and well-liked styles in architecture and design remain relevant for a long time - this also applies to roof design. Previously, someone who chose roofing according to current trends could be sure that his roof would be fashionable for at least a few years. Today, things may be quite different. We have reached a time of breakthrough in the industry - changes are taking place that will set architectural trends for years to come.
The 1920s of the twenty-first century saw revolutionary changes in many key areas of human activity that resonate in other, more specialized fields. In an era of increasing globalization, more and more people are consciously choosing to live green. Caring for the environment is a guarantee of a secure future for all mankind. The importance of solutions that are further supported by state-of-the-art smart technologies is also growing. So, a roof in the 21st century should not only serve a protective function, impress your friends, but also... help charge your electric car!
2-in-1 solar roofs - what is their phenomenon?
The2-in-1 solar roof is an innovative solution, meeting the challenges of the 21st century. Designed by the Swedish company SunRoof, 2in1 roofs are a combination of photovoltaic technology and building architecture. They perform two functions at the same time - they protect the building from adverse weather conditions and produce electricity. In the case of installing ordinary PV panels, the owner of a new house has to bear the cost of both the roofing and later the photovoltaics and their installation. When you decide on a 2-in-1 solar roof, you immediately benefit from one product - the most efficient in its category, at the same time extremely ecological and in excellent design. The SunRoof requires far fewer materials than a conventional roof and photovoltaic panels, so it is a much cheaper solution and reduces the implementation time to the maximum.

And what about durability? Can a roof integrated with photovoltaic cells compete with a classic roof in this regard?
The durability, quality and safety of SunRoof solar roofs have been achieved through years of specialized research and testing, confirmed by the Swedish RISE institute. One proven and safe model has been developed, which is airtight, provides adequate thermoregulation, as well as complete protection from the weather. Despite the apparent softness of the surface of the covering, it is durable and will last for years. In addition, a well-planned investment will provide free electricity for home heating, as well as significantly increase the value of the property and will pay for itself within 5-7 years.
Unique design - time for homes without compromises
Many people say that photovoltaic panels do not blend stylistically with the finished roof, making the building lose its visual appeal. People very often devote their entire life's savings to the construction of their home - so it is not surprising that the dilemma and choice between the economic and the aesthetic until recently accompanied investors and architects. 2-in-1 solar roofs are the answer to such hesitations.
The excellent design of SunRoof roofs is due to ultra-light, ultra-thin and ultra-strong glass-glass modules. They are also characterized by the highest efficiency (by using the front and back side of the module, energy yields can be increased). They also have a much longer lifespan compared to other alternatives available on the market.
SunRoof is a Swedish company that was created for customers who want to live in a modern and friendly environment. Design in Sweden - is synonymous with stylish, modern and simple design. SunRoof's roof integrates with materials of different shapes and colors, so it blends well with the architect's plans.

A home without energy bills
An energy self-sufficient house is the dream of many people who hold the topic of ecology and sustainability particularly close to their hearts. It is also an attractive option for lovers of new technologies and people who constantly want to optimize their home expenses. In the world, houses that can fully function without external sources of electricity are increasingly being designed. In Poland, there is also growing interest in the construction of such "green" houses, taking into account the use of only renewable energy sources.
SunRoof 2-in-1 roofs are an ideal choice for smart energy self-sufficient houses. They produce green electricity, look great and are fully compatible with the latest smart technologies. With solar roofs, electricity bills can be reduced to a minimum, or not paid at all. You can power all the electrical devices in your home with energy from the sun. However, the biggest savings will be generated by investing in a modern building heating system, which will be powered by the energy produced by the 2-in-1 SunRoof. It's also worth thinking about the future - an electric car is only a matter of time, and solar roof technology is a guarantee of its free charging and comfortable use for years. It's also the solution that leaves the lowest carbon footprint in its category.
