Exterior Color (Absorp.)

Hi All,

When I reduce the roofing material absorptance value in my model, under
construction properties, my energy consumption increases instead of
decreasing, which suggests that this input is actually reflectance and not
absorptance. has anyone experience something similar or am I missing
something here? Any input is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Behnam
