The purpose of this study is to see the differences between the investment costs and the energy efficiency for two types of roofs for a 2-storey house located in Timisoara, Romania. The paper contains a comparison of the costs and energy demand between a pitched roof and a flat roof. The energy demand will be calculated using the stationary method with a modeling program. The study focuses only on the effects of choosing between the two types of buildings roofs, so the dimensions of buildings, characteristics of the buildings envelope (exterior walls, windows and doors, ground floor slab) and the installation systems remain the same.
