How Long Are You Covered
ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES APPLICABLE TO YOUR SHINGLES OR ROOFING
SYSTEM ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE TRU PROTECTION
®
COVERAGE
PERIOD APPLICABLE TO SUCH PRODUCTS, AS PROVIDED BY THIS WARRANTY,
UNLESS A SHORTER PERIOD IS PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. SOME STATES
OR PROVINCES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED
WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
1. Tru PROtection
®
Coverage Period—From the installation of the shingles through the
Tru PROtection
®
coverage period of this warranty, Owens Corning will, compensate you
to either repair, replace or recover defective Owens Corning
®
Roofing System
components. The compensation provided by Owens Corning is limited to the cost of
replacing Owens Corning
®
Roofing System components and the labor directly required
to repair, replace or recover such defective Owens Corning
®
Roofing System components
as reasonably determined by Owens Corning. Our compensation will not cover any
non-Owens Corning
®
Roofing System underlayment, metalwork, flashings or other related
work, and we will not cover the cost to remove or dispose of your Roofing System. The
Tru PROtection
®
coverage period does not apply to Wind and Algae coverage. Please see
“What About Wind Resistance” and “What About Algae Resistance” portions
of this warranty for applicable coverage. Owens Corning reserves the right to arrange
directly for the repair or replacement of your Products instead of compensating you
directly. This compensation is limited as follows:
A. If Owens Corning decides to replace the shingles, Owens Corning will compensate you
only for the cost of replacement Owens Corning
®
shingles and the labor directly required
to replace the defective shingles, both as reasonably determined by Owens Corning.
B. If Owens Corning decides to repair or recover the shingles, Owens Corning will
compensate you only for the cost of the labor directly required to repair or recover the
defective shingles as reasonably determined by Owens Corning.

Please see “What About Wind Resistance” and “What About Algae
Resistance” below for applicable coverage.
2. Prorated Period—Once the Tru PROtection
®
coverage period for the Owens Corning
®
Roofing System purchased has expired, the prorated period will begin. During this prorated
period, we will provide prorated compensation of the cost of the defective Owens Corning
®
products, but no labor or other costs will be covered during the prorated period, and we will
take into account the number of full years of use you have enjoyed your Roofing System
from the original installation date through the date of your claim, and reduce the amount of
our compensation to you accordingly. We will prorate the amount of our compensation to
you to adjust the number of years you have enjoyed from the original installation through
the date of your claim For example: If you make your claim in the 15th year of the warranty,
we will not cover labor but our compensation to you will be 72% of the Owens Corning
®
Roofing System components cost at the time of purchase. Further detail can be found on
the “Limited Lifetime
Δ
Roofing System Proration^ Table” below.
3. Other Types of Structures—The coverage for the Owens Corning
®
Roofing System offered
by this warranty depends on the structure of which the shingles are installed and the owner
of the structure. Lifetime coverage for all Owens Corning
®
shingles applies only to single
family detached homes. In the instance of a Roofing System purchased or installed upon
property owned by others, for example, corporations, governmental agencies, partnerships,
trusts, religious organizations, schools, condominiums or cooperative housing arrangements,
or installed any other structures (for example, on apartment buildings or any other type
of building or premises not used by individual Roofing System will be 40 years from the
original installation date of the Roofing System, and the Tru PROtection
®
coverage period
will be 5 years). Further detail can be found on the “Limited Lifetime
Δ
Roofing System
Proration^ Table”. Owens Corning reserves the right to arrange directly for the repair or
replacement of your Products instead of compensating you directly.

ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE
