What Makes Timberline Solar Different?

Unlike heavy panels and tiles, this roof is made up of shingles. These shingles are designed to be water-shedding and can withstand winds up to 130mph.

Aside from the quality of the product when it comes to withstanding the elements, the overall look of the roof and your home is a major factor. This roof has been carefully crafted to blend in with the aesthetics of your home. It adds to the overall curb appeal instead of creating a distraction. We know how important aesthetics are for your home, which is why we offer this roofing product. 

Timberline Solar creates energy for your home throughout the day. Every minute of sun is an added minute of energy. This has been proven based on the rigorous testing and industry-leading standards this product had to meet before it was released on the market. It has also received the UL 7103 certification. This certification means this roofing meets the codes and standards required in the leading building and solar industries. 

As certified GAF contractors we can also tell you how efficient the installation process for this solar roof is. It is actually the world’s first ever nailable solar shingle, making it very easy for us to install. Although placement and technique is still important, we essentially install it with a nail gun. Efficient installation also saves money because it takes less time to complete compared to other products. 

Although this solar roof is designed with ease of installation in mind, it is still crucial to have it done by one of our GAF certified contractors. This is the only way to ensure you have full warranty on the product and the craftsmanship. 

The GAF Timberline Solar Shingles have generated a lot of buzz and have even been compared to the innovations released by Tesla and their solar roof system. Like Tesla, GAF is one of the few companies who have invested in solar roofing and actually succeeded. Instead of shying away from the solar shingles, as they have not been a successful product among other companies in the past, GAF pushed forward and created a solar shingle that delivers on its promise of creating dependable clean energy for homes across the United States. 

Aside from the details of why these solar shingles are a great investment for any home and business, we also want to explain how exactly they work. The GAF solar shingle has been designed to intertwine a conventional asphalt shingle with the monocrystalline solar cells found within a solar panel. The upper section of the solar shingles is made from asphalt. This is how it can be nailed directly to the roof like a traditional shingle. No racking or mounting is required, which means no excess roof damage occurs during installation. That is why it is so easy for our contractors to install. The lower portion of the shingle is where the electricity absorbed from the sun is generated. The shingles are overlapped, allowing them to lay flush across the roof. The actual wiring is found on the side of each shingle. This is how they are connected together and create a larger solar electric system.
