GAF EverGuard Extreme® Advanced Protection® TPO is the best-performing TPO you can buy for your property. Its patent-pending technology not only results in next-generation performance against heat aging and UV degradation (the two key performance characteristics directly related to roof system longevity), but also exceeds all key ASTM standards for TPO membranes. Why settle for anything less when you can get the advanced protection of EverGuard Extreme® for your property?

EverGuard Extreme® TPO Far Exceeds The Performance Of Typical TPO MembranesOther TPO roofing sold today simply cannot match the performance of EverGuard Extreme®. It uses a proprietary formulation of stabilizers and UV absorbers to achieve performance levels far beyond current roofing standards. To prove it, we tested EverGuard Extreme® against typical TPO membranes for the two key performance attributes most-highly sought after in TPO membranes: heat aging and UV weathering. The results were astounding—which is why we back EverGuard Extreme® with the industry’s best guarantees: up to 35 years!*

50 mil & 70 mil EverGuard Extreme®: Your “Everyday” Choices In TPO

EverGuard Extreme® TPO “Advanced Protection For Your Property”

EverGuard Extreme® TPO Has More Than Double The Performance Of Standard TPO Membranes In Heat-Aging Tests...Why is this important? Because heat can severely degrade standard TPO membranes over time. So we tested EverGuard Extreme® against the three leading TPO membranes at 280°F—a temperature beyond the most rigorous proposed ASTM tests. As you can see in the chart (and the unretouched photos below), EverGuard Extreme® TPO significantly outperformed the competition when exposed to damaging heat.

EverGuard Extreme® Far Exceeds Typical TPO Membranes In UV Weathering Tests...Based on the ASTM D6878 Xenon Arc Weatherometer testing method, EverGuard Extreme® TPO far exceeds the performance of typical TPO membranes—more than double in most cases. Why is that important? Because the ASTM weathering test is a proxy for how well the membrane will stand up to the long-term ravages of UV degradation, the key destroyer of long-term TPO membrane performance.

GAF’s 50 mil and 70 mil versions of EverGuard Extreme® Advanced Protection® TPO have virtually identical weathering characteristics as our 60 mil and 80 mil versions.

What does that mean for you? 50 mil EverGuard Extreme®

offers superior performance to typical 60 mil TPO— but for virtually the same price! The same is true for 70 mil

EverGuard Extreme®, which is similar in price to typical 80 mil TPO, but with superior performance.

With EverGuard Extreme® TPO, you’ll never have to choose between performance and price—you’ll get both. And with our 50 mil and 70 mil versions, you’ll have more design choices than ever. So why use anything else?

SINGLE-PLY ROOFING SYSTEMS TPORoofing Systems

It’s Not Just About A Great TPO Membrane... It’s About The System!

“ Drill-Tec™ Fasteners Are Designed For Fast Installation And Superior Performance”

The Problem: • Standard fasteners can rust, corrode, or even pull out under extreme weather conditions.

The Solution: • Drill-Tec™ Fasteners with CR-10 corrosion-resistant coating exceed FMRC 4470 for superior, long-term performance; plus, their extra-heavy-duty shank and threads reduce the chance of pull-out—passes FM-1-90 at 12” o.c. for TPO and PVC.

• Drill-Tec™ ASAP Fasteners greatly reduce installation time—plus, locking plate resists pull-out.

• Drill-Tec™ RhinoBond® Fasteners allow you to install a TPO roof at temperatures as low as 0°F, with fewer fasteners needed to pass FM-1-90; also results in less wrinkling and flutter than standard fasteners.

The Problem: • Energy codes are requiring an increase in R-values on the roof, so proper material selection is becoming increasingly vital to achieve all of the requirements of a low-slope roofing system.

The Solution: • EnergyGuard™ Polyiso has a designed R-value of 5.7 per inch, providing a superior LTTR (Long Term Thermal Resistance) compared to any other FM Class I rated product of equivalent thickness. Furthermore, EnergyGuard™ is designed to be installed with virtually any low-slope roofing system.

• EnergyGuard™ insulation options include ISO with UltraShield™ Facer, Tapered Foam, Composite, Fiberboard, Perlite, Perlite Re-cover Board, Tapered Perlite, Tapered Edge Strip, and Cant Strip.

GAF roofing accessories are specially designed to work with GAF membranes to provide reliable, long-term waterproofing. At the same time, each is designed to deliver its own set of unique benefits that would improve any roofing system.

The Problem: • Inconsistent quality and material incompatibility with roofing membranes can result in poor performance.

The Solution: • EverGuard® adhesives are optimized to work with EverGuard® TPO membrane systems.

• Environmentally friendly formulations with low VOC and low odor are available.

The Problem: • Field fabrication is time-consuming, costly, inconsistent, and can lead to unreliable details that compromise a watertight roofing system.

The Solution: • EverGuard® prefabricated accessories deliver consistent quality and eliminate the worry and problems often associated with field fabrication.

• EverGuard® prefabricated accessories: – Boost Productivity Up To 200%* – Reduce Total Installed Cost By Up To 12% – Eliminate Common Problems Often Associated With Field-Fabricated Details * Based on GAF estimate to field-fabricate flashing details.

SPECIMENTHE GUARANTEE/SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY

GAF MATERIALS CORPORATION (“GAF”) guarantees to you, the original owner of the building described above, that GAF will provide

“Edge To Edge” protection by repairing leaks through the GAF roofing membrane, liquid applied membrane or coating, base flashing, high wall

waterproofing flashing, insulation, expansion joint covers, preflashed accessories and metal flashings used by the contractor of record that meet

SMACNA standards (the “GAF Roofing Materials”) resulting from manufacturing defects, ordinary wear and tear or workmanship in applying the

GAF Roofing Materials.

There is no dollar limit on covered repairs. Leaks caused by any materials other than those listed above, such as the roof deck, non-GAF

insulation, or any other materials used in the construction of the roof system, are not covered.

GUARANTEE PERIOD

This guarantee ends on the expiration date listed above. NOTE: Lexsuco® flashings are covered by this guarantee only for the first ten years.

OWNER’S RESPONSIBILITIES

Notification of Leaks

In the event of a leak through the GAF Roofing Materials, you must make sure that GAF is notified directly about the leak, in writing, within 30

days by email (preferred) at [email protected], or in writing to Guarantee Services Department, 1361 Alps Road, Bldg. 11-1, Wayne,

New Jersey 07470, or GAF will have no responsibility for making repairs. NOTE: The roofing contractor is NOT an agent of GAF; notice to the

roofing contractor is NOT notice to GAF.

By notifying GAF, you authorize GAF to investigate the cause of the leak. If the investigation reveals that the leak is not covered by this guarantee,

you agree to pay an investigation cost of $500. This guarantee will be cancelled if you fail to pay this cost within 30 days of receipt of an invoice

for it.

Preventative Maintenance and Repairs

A. In order to maximize the trouble-free performance of your roof, you must perform regular inspections and maintenance and keep records of

this work.

B. To keep this guarantee in effect, you must repair any conditions in the building structure or roofing system that are not covered by this guarantee

but that GAF concludes may be threatening the integrity of the GAF Roofing Materials (e.g., porous walls allowing water entry into the roofing

system).

C. You may make temporary repairs to minimize damage to the building or its contents in an emergency, at your sole expense. These repairs will

not result in cancellation of the guarantee as long as they are reasonable and customary and do not result in permanent damage to the GAF

Roofing Materials.

D. Any equipment or material that impedes any inspection or repair must be removed at your expense so that GAF can perform inspections

or repairs.

EXCLUSIONS FROM COVERAGE

(e.g., items that are not “ordinary wear and tear” or are beyond GAF’s control)

This guarantee does NOT cover conditions other than leaks. This guarantee also does not cover leaks caused by the following:

THE GUARANTEE/SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY

GAF MATERIALS CORPORATION (“GAF”) guarantees to you, the original owner of the building described above, that GAF will provide

“Edge To Edge” protection by repairing leaks through the GAF roofing membrane, liquid applied membrane or coating, base flashing, high wall

waterproofing flashing, insulation, expansion joint covers, preflashed accessories and metal flashings used by the contractor of record that meet

SMACNA standards (the “GAF Roofing Materials”) resulting from manufacturing defects, ordinary wear and tear or workmanship in applying the

GAF Roofing Materials. There is no dollar limit on covered repairs. Leaks caused by any materials other than those listed above, such as the roof deck, non-GAF

insulation, or any other materials used in the construction of the roof system, are not covered.

GUARANTEE PERIODThis guarantee ends on the expiration date listed above. NOTE: Lexsuco® flashings are covered by this guarantee only for the first ten years.

OWNER’S RESPONSIBILITIES

Notification of Leaks In the event of a leak through the GAF Roofing Materials, you must make sure that GAF is notified directly about the leak, in writing, within 30

days by email (preferred) at [email protected], or in writing to Guarantee Services Department, 1361 Alps Road, Bldg. 11-1, Wayne,

New Jersey 07470, or GAF will have no responsibility for making repairs. NOTE: The roofing contractor is NOT an agent of GAF; notice to the

roofing contractor is NOT notice to GAF.

By notifying GAF, you authorize GAF to investigate the cause of the leak. If the investigation reveals that the leak is not covered by this guarantee,

you agree to pay an investigation cost of $500. This guarantee will be cancelled if you fail to pay this cost within 30 days of receipt of an invoice

for it.Preventative Maintenance and Repairs

A. In order to maximize the trouble-free performance of your roof, you must perform regular inspections and maintenance and keep records of

this work. B. To keep this guarantee in effect, you must repair any conditions in the building structure or roofing system that are not covered by this guarantee

but that GAF concludes may be threatening the integrity of the GAF Roofing Materials (e.g., porous walls allowing water entry into the roofing

system).C. You may make temporary repairs to minimize damage to the building or its contents in an emergency, at your sole expense. These repairs will

not result in cancellation of the guarantee as long as they are reasonable and customary and do not result in permanent damage to the GAF

Roofing Materials.D. Any equipment or material that impedes any inspection or repair must be removed at your expense so that GAF can perform inspections

or repairs. EXCLUSIONS FROM COVERAGE
