Is T MAX L noisy in the rain?

Metal roof tiles can be categorized into smooth uncoated metal roof tiles and stone coated metal roof tiles, which are very different in the way they solve the rain noise problem.

Stone coated metal roofing tiles are particularly quiet in the rain due to the complex surface structure - coated stone acoustic matting - which prevents sound from hitting the hard flat surface. On the other hand, stone coated metal roof tiles have the ability to absorb rain sound.

Smooth, uncoated metal panels do not shorten the long reflections of sound, known as echoes. As an example, when you clap in an empty room, the sound passes through the smooth walls and echoes. So too with a smooth metal tile roof: the sound of rainwater bounces back and creates a long echo. In other words, a smooth roof reflects sound, but the echo makes the rain sound louder and longer. The thicker the roofing material and the more uneven the surface, the more effective it is at blocking and dampening echoes.

Therefore, the thicker the roofing material and the more irregular the surface, the more effective the roof will be at blocking, attenuating and absorbing rain sound.

Stone coated metal roof tiles have multiple layers of colored stone granules, which not only enhance corrosion resistance and tensile strength, but also act as an acoustic barrier. Therefore, the roof is less affected by noise.

So, back to our original question, isT MAX L noisy in the rain?

No, not at all.

In addition, it retains the characteristics of metal tiles - lightweight and easy to use, perfect for buildings with stringent roof load requirements, and able to capture the sun's rays without damaging the building, while maintaining the aesthetics of the building, it's really hard for me to not recommend it to you! ——T MAX L
