These designer asphalt shingles are layered and cut to create a beautiful natural slate aesthetic. Their Designer Roofing Shingles are covered under the GAF Smart Choice® Shingle International Limited Warranty which extends to a period of 10 years.

GAF’s confidence in their roofing products isn’t just hot air. Buildings experience aging factors differently, so it is difficult to predict how long shingles will last. Shingles begin to age as soon as they are exposed to nature. Shingles are classified as Class A when resisting wind velocity of 60 mph, Class D when resisting velocity of 90 mph and Class F when resisting wind velocity of 110 mph. The ASTM D3161 tests interlocking shingles’ ability to resist wind. The ASTM D7158 is the standard test method for wind resistance of asphalt shingles against uplift forces and designated by class G (up to 90 mph), D (up to 120 mph), or H ( up to 150 mph). These shingles also offer superior wind resistance, earning both ASTM D7158 Class H and ASTM D3161 Class F ratings. Under such exposures, roof coverings of this class afford a high degree of fire protection to the roof deck, do not slip from position, and are not expected to produce flying brands.

The UL 790 (Class A), fire rating states:Ĭlass A roof coverings are effective against severe fire test exposures.

GAF SHINGLES SERIES

Each product in this series has earned a Class A UL 790 fire rating: This series offers the highest fire and wind protection offered for residential shingles. StainGuard® Protection helps ensure the beauty of your roof against unsightly blue-green algae. Their shingles are also backed with Advanced Protection®, which means you’re getting the very best combination of weight, performance, and weatherizing that modern manufacturing technology can deliver. The GAF Designer Roofing Shingle series is comprised of 7 different dimensional shingle lines that feature multiple cuts and colors. They are also often offered in unique cuts that further underscore their ornate air. Designer shingles build on their dimensional foundation by simulating the look of wood shake, natural slate or even tile. This double layer creates a dimensional appearance, making the shingle look more robust and creating a more interesting looking roof. Often, and in the case of GAF, it's fiberglass. To explain designer shingles, we’ll have to clarify what dimensional shingles are.ĭimensional shingles are asphalt shingles with two layers of material bonded together.
