WinterGuard® waterproofing shingle underlayment is the solution for winning the battle against water penetration in your roof's most vulnerable places. WinterGuard is a composite material of asphalt polymers, formed into a rolled sheet. The asphalt makes it vapor-tight, and the polymers make the asphalt elastic and sticky. This protective barrier is able to stretch and seal around nails driven through it.
WinterGuard is one of the key components in the CertainTeed Integrity Roof System® which is comprised of underlayments, shingles, accessory products and ventilation all working together. The Integrity Roof System is designed to provide optimum performance--no matter the weather conditions.
- Granular – Embedded granules for superior traction during application

- Metal – high temperature textured surface underlayment, great for use under metal, shingle, slate or mechanically-fastened tile roofs.
- HT – high temperature enhanced skid resistant top film surface, great for use under shingle, metal, slate and tile roofs.

Installation
Easy Installation WinterGuard's adhesive bottom surface is protected with a disposable silicone coated release film, which is split down the middle for simple and cost-effective application. The "Peal & Flop" method is especially effective in valleys and other difficult places using manageable lengths. Even more important, WinterGuard can be repositioned before deck adhesion occurs. For additional installation instructions, refer to the Underlayment Installation Instructions.
