Elite insulated roof panels in Lake County FL. R-12 to R-24 aluminum panels for patio covers, sunrooms, and mobile homes. Up to 15° cooler. Walk-on structural strength.
Expert Insulated Roof Panels Services in Lake County
Insulated roof panels combine structural strength, thermal insulation, and weather protection in one integrated system. These engineered panels feature a rigid foam core sandwiched between two aluminum skins, creating roofing that keeps spaces dramatically cooler while supporting ceiling fans, lights, and maintenance foot traffic.
Pro Specialty Services installs Elite-style insulated panels for patio covers, sunrooms, mobile home applications, carports, and commercial structures throughout Lake County. Available in 3", 4", and 6" thicknesses with R-12 to R-24 insulation values, these panels transform covered outdoor spaces and enclosed rooms.
Unlike standard aluminum pan roofing, insulated panels provide genuine thermal comfort. Spaces beneath insulated panels stay up to 15 degrees cooler—the difference between an unusable hot patio and a comfortable outdoor living area. For enclosed sunrooms, insulated panels are essentially mandatory for reasonable comfort.
We serve Lake County and Central Florida including Eustis, Leesburg, Tavares, Mount Dora, Lady Lake, The Villages, and Clermont. Contact us for a free consultation on insulated panel solutions for your project.
Why Insulated Panels Make the Difference
Thermal performance is the primary advantage. Standard aluminum roofing absorbs heat and radiates it downward—covered areas become ovens in Florida summers. Insulated panels block this heat transfer with their foam cores while reflecting radiant heat from their aluminum surfaces. The result is dramatically cooler temperatures underneath, typically 10-15 degrees cooler than non-insulated covers.
Structural capability sets insulated panels apart. The foam core bonded to aluminum skins creates rigid, strong panels that span long distances between supports (up to 20 feet for 6" panels). You can walk on them for maintenance, mount ceiling fans and heavy light fixtures, and rely on them to resist wind loads. Standard pan roofing offers none of these capabilities.
Energy savings and comfort compound over time. Air conditioning an enclosed space with a non-insulated roof is expensive and often futile. Insulated panels dramatically reduce cooling loads, lowering utility bills and extending HVAC equipment life. The investment in quality insulated panels pays dividends every month.

Common Questions
R-12 (3" panels) provides basic improvement over non-insulated options. R-16 (4" panels) is the sweet spot for most applications—good performance at reasonable cost. R-24 (6" panels) is best for air-conditioned spaces or maximum comfort. We'll recommend based on your specific use and budget.
Insulated panel installation typically runs $25-45 per square foot depending on thickness and project scope. A 12'x20' patio cover with 4" insulated panels might cost $7,000-$10,000 installed. We provide detailed quotes for your specific project.
For any enclosed space or area you want to use comfortably, yes. The temperature difference is dramatic—10-15 degrees cooler. Standard aluminum works for basic rain cover only. For sunrooms, insulated panels are essentially required for comfort.
Yes, quality insulated panels are structural and support foot traffic for maintenance access. Standard pan roofing cannot be walked on without damage. This is a key advantage of insulated systems.
Insulated panels support ceiling fans and recessed LED lights. We can include electrical rough-in during installation (licensed electrician handles final connections). The structural strength of the panels means no special mounting concerns.
Quality insulated panels last 40+ years in Florida. The aluminum facings resist corrosion, and the foam core is dimensionally stable. Proper installation ensures longevity—seams stay sealed and connections remain weathertight.
No—they're much quieter than standard aluminum. The foam core dampens sound significantly. You can have comfortable conversations under insulated panels even during heavy rain.
