exceptional beauty and performance

Terracotta roong has brought beauty and character to the roofscapes of Europe and Asia and has stood the test of time.

Colour Retention Terracotta tiles are crafted from prepared natural clays that

are kiln-red to temperatures of 1100°C for exceptional

character, strength, high colour retention and negligible

maintenance requirements. Terracotta roong substantially

retains its appearance with age, maintaining the aesthetic

appearance of your home over time.

Long Lasting – 50 Year WarrantyWith a 50 year warranty against defects 1, Boral terracotta

tiles are manufactured to last and will make a beautiful and

hardwearing roof for your home. Terracotta roong has

brought beauty and character to the roofscapes of Europe

and Asia and has stood the test of time over centuries in

these continents.

Salt-Safe & Frost Resistant

All Boral Terracotta tiles are salt-safe making them suitablefor any location including coastal areas and sites with close

proximity to breaking surf.

The 50 year warranty on Boral Terracotta tiles is provided to

all terracotta tiles regardless of the location of the property.

Thermal Performance The thermal performance of a roof refers to how it affects

the temperature within a house and relates to the energy

used within the house to maintain the temperature at a

comfortable level.

Further improvements in thermal performance can be gained

by using sarking, increased insulation, a lighter roof colour and

changes in the overall design considerations. The addition of

sarking under tiles considerably reduces the need for cooling

in the home and is recommended in all roong applications.

Sound PerformanceEnjoy more peace and quiet with Boral Terracotta roof tiles

as their density helps reduce sound inside the home such as

trafc, aircrafts and trains. 2

Low MaintenanceOnce Terracotta roof tiles are properly installed they have

negligible maintenance requirements for the life of the roof.

Should a section of the roof ever be damaged or require

modication (e.g. installing a skylight), only the affected tiles

usually require replacement or removal.

Fire ResistanceBoral Terracotta roof tiles are non-combustible and can be

safely used in bushre-prone areas. In areas assessed as BAL-

12 to BAL-40, sarking with a ammability index of not more

than 5 must be installed under the tiles and cover the whole

roof. In BAL-FZ areas, specic construction requirementscan be obtained at www.rtaa.com.au.

Rainwater & Tank SafetyBoral Terracotta roof tiles are non-toxic and provided your

roof is clean and healthy, can be suitable for the collection of

rainwater for reuse. Any excess water can be channelled into

grey water tanks. This is good news for those thinking about

water conservation and great news for your garden. Boral

Terracotta roof tiles are manufactured to AS 2049 ensuring

the surface treatment is free of any elements or chemicals in

concentrations known to be hazardous to health.

living energy-wise

Energy efficient roof systems

TIP Sarking should always be used in low pitched roofs to protect against wind-blown spray and condensation, and is mandatory in bush fire zones and high wind areas

Awareness of the impact of our energy and water consumptionon the environment has today reached new heights.

ORIENTATIONSite orientation or the position of a building relative to the sunprovides the opportunity to take advantage of the naturally available

energy. With northerly living areas the use of extended eaves willblock the higher summer sun while allowing the low winter sun toenter your home.

Consideration should be given to the following factors to enhancethe thermal performance of tiled roofs.

THERMAL MASSMaterials with high thermal mass, or ability to absorb and storeheat energy, are important in most Australian climates where thereis a need to average out temperature extremes. The density of clayand concrete effectively delays the flow of heat producing a warmerhouse in winter and a cooler house in summer.

COLOURHome builders are increasingly recognising the opportunity toimprove energy efficiency simply by selecting a lighter colour for theexposed roof surface. Although the research is continuing, so far ithas shown that light coloured roof tiles can lower the airtemperature in the roof space by up to 9 degrees compared todark tiles. * To find out the Boral tile BASIX colour ratings, go onlineor call us on 1300 363 072.

VENTILATIONCross-ventilation, with openings on both sides of a home, allowsbreezes to circulate for a cooler home. This is of high importance in

the roof space, so radiant heat building up from the hot summersun can escape. Ideally, vents should be installed in the roof tohelp regulate air flow all year round.

SARKINGInsulating walls and ceilings is one of the best ways to efficientlyregulate temperature. Now recognised as of equal importance is

the reflective foil insulation, called sarking, which sits between therafters and roof tile battens.

Sarking is a type of foil used as insulation and can reflect radiantheat from your roof space on a hot summer day. This dramaticallyreduces the temperature in the roof on hot days, and in winter itworks in the reverse by reducing heat loss through the roof.

In the wet, the waterproof benefits of sarking cannot beunderestimated and it provides an extra level of security againstunpredictable storms. We recommend its use for all tiled roofs tomaximise the energy efficiency of your home and to ensure yourroof remains watertight.

RAINWATERIn terms of collecting tank water, a roof’s span will clearly affect thevolume of rain collected, so ensure a guttering and downpipesystem of adequate size. Tiled roofs of greater pitch will moreefficiently deliver rainwater to this system, particularly if the profileis shaped.

So too has the many ways our homes can more efficiently manage these resources.

Legislative change is turning this knowledge into action through minimum standards for new houses that will provide bigsavings in energy, and by default, energy bills.

Building your home to be energy efficient can beeasier than you think however, it will involve designand planning around key considerations including;

• environmental impact

• your comfort at home in hot and cold weather

• energy use

Environmental ImpactIt’s all about taking a long-term view of ourimpact on the environment. An energy-wise homewill use the best combination of sustainablebuilding considerations such as site orientation(where a home is positioned on a block), wall andceiling insulation, ventilation and building materialsto reduce energy consumption and greenhousegas emissions.

Your Comfort at HomeIn Australia, it is estimated that 38% of energyused in homes is for heating and cooling the

spaces in which we live*. This means that withgood design and planning, building with roof tilescan actually make a difference to the temperatureinside your home and reduce the need for heatersand air-conditioners. Great news for your comfortindoors and particularly helpful for saving onenergy costs. And you can rest assured Boral rooftiles are supported by Boral’s 50 year warrantyagainst defects. ^

‘Built in’ energy savingswith passive designRoof tiles used together with good design principles such as passive solardesign can make a significant difference to energy consumption used forheating and cooling your home – energy efficiency that is virtually ‘built in’.

Note: It is recommended passive design features are used in combination,not individually, and they are tailored to each climate and home.

Passive Design – How it Works

ORIENTATION AND SOLAR ACCESSSite orientation or the position of the house relative to the sun – house cantake advantage of naturally available energy.

GLAZING AND SHADINGUse of eaves and glazing windows and doors.

SEALING AND VENTILATIONCross ventilation – openings on both sides of the home means fresh breezescan circulate better. Thermal mass in internal walls is still needed to help

moderate (even out) temperatures. Vents should also be installed in the roofspace to help regulate air flow year-round.

INSULATION The use of insulation to enable walls and ceilings to act as a barrier to heatflow is essential to providing year-round comfort.

THERMAL MASS The ability of a material to absorb heat energy. High density materials suchas bricks and roof tiles have high thermal mass which, when used correctlycan moderate internal temperatures by averaging day/night extremes.
