Southern California summers can place constant stress on your home’s exterior, causing walls to absorb heat throughout the day. Traditional exterior paint often allows that heat to transfer into your home, making indoor spaces less comfortable and increasing air conditioning use. TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® is designed with advanced heat-reflective technology that helps reduce exterior wall temperatures, making it an excellent solution for homeowners looking to improve comfort and energy efficiency. In this blog, we’ll explain how TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® helps keep your home cooler during the summer months and how California Energy Contractors can help improve your home’s comfort, efficiency, and exterior appearance with a professional COOLWALL® coating system.
Reflects More of the Sun’s Heat
Unlike conventional exterior paint, TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® uses specially formulated heat-reflective pigments that help reflect the sun’s infrared heat instead of allowing it to be absorbed by your home’s exterior walls. This advanced technology helps reduce heat buildup while maintaining the rich color of your home’s finish.
Helps Lower Exterior Wall Temperatures
On hot summer days, exterior walls can become extremely hot from direct sunlight. TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® has been shown to lower exterior wall surface temperatures by as much as 40°F compared to many traditional paints. Cooler exterior walls help reduce the amount of heat that enters your home throughout the day.
Supports Greater Energy Efficiency
Exterior walls absorb a large amount of the sun’s heat throughout the day, which can increase indoor temperatures and place additional demand on your air conditioning system. TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® is engineered with advanced heat-reflective technology that helps reduce heat absorption by reflecting more of the sun’s infrared energy than conventional exterior coatings. By keeping exterior wall temperatures lower, COOLWALL® can help improve indoor comfort and reduce cooling demands. According to testing conducted by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® may reduce home cooling costs by up to 21.9%, depending on the home’s design, climate, color selection, and other factors.
Long-Lasting Beauty and Protection
Beyond helping improve comfort, TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® provides a durable exterior finish that resists fading and weathering. Its advanced coating technology helps maintain color, adhesion, and overall appearance for years while reducing the expansion and contraction caused by heat buildup.
Why Choose TEX•COTE® COOLWALL®?
TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® is more than traditional exterior paint. It is an advanced exterior coating system that combines durability, energy efficiency, and long-term beauty into one solution. Using the same heat-reflective technology developed to reduce heat absorption in military applications, COOLWALL® helps homeowners enjoy greater comfort while protecting their home’s exterior for years to come.

Yes. By maintaining lower exterior wall temperatures, less heat migrates into your home, helping maintain a balanced indoor climate.
It relies on infrared-reflective pigments that bounce solar energy away from your walls rather than absorbing it, drastically reducing surface heat.
