Cool Roofing Shingles

Did you know that a roof can get so hot it can actually fry an egg? That's why Timberline®, America's best-selling architectural shingle from GAF-Elk, now has a Cool Series shingle with special reflective granules that can stay up to 20 degrees cooler on a hot, sunny day. Thanks to their highly reflective nature, part of the heat coming from the sun gets reflected, reducing the heat in the attic and into the house. It may translate into substantial savings in air conditioning bills (and even tax breaks)! Timberline® Cool Series come in 4 very COOL colors:
Cool Barkwood
Cool Antique Slate
Cool Weathered Wood
Cool WhiteThey also come with the patented StainGuard® algae protection and carry all the benefits of an Energy Star® qualified roof product.
