Shingles can’t handle high degree heat and when there is no insulation in the roof the heat loss will damage the shingles. When they are protected with a blanket of insulation, any warranties that come with the shingles will become active. The warranties have a long shelf life – some in the 50-year range – and the best part of the warranty is it can be part of any property sale and given to the new owner.
