Before getting into the actual innovative features of these shingles, let's first answer the question, "What exactly is a cool roof?" Made with a technologically advanced granule, a cool roof is designed to reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat than a traditional asphalt shingle, offering homeowners the benefit of up to 15% savings on energy bills, keeping homes cooler during the sweltering summer months. Top 5 Reasons You Should Consider Pinnacle® Sun as a Cool Roofing Investment So, what makes a Pinnacle® Sun shingle a fantastic example of when Cool Roof Technology meets functionality, aesthetic appeal and additional exclusive 3M™ technology? Let's find out. Thanks to the technology of 3M™ Cool Roofing Granules, which reflects light rather than absorb it, your home becomes a sanctuary of comfort even in the peak of summer. Not to mention, cool roofs help reduce the urban heat island effect — where urban areas are hotter than surrounding rural areas. It's not just a smart choice for your wallet — but for our planet, too. When it comes to long-lasting protection, the secret weapon many homeowners trust inside and outside their homes is Scotchgard™ Protector by 3M. The appearance of your home's exterior can face numerous threats, like the unsightly growth of blue-green algae. With the powerful protection of 3M™ Scotchgard™ Protector, your home remains guarded against this common nuisance. Atlas shingles with 3M™ Scotchgard™ Protector preserve the vibrancy and beauty of your roof with premium, long-lasting protection, ensuring that your home's charm doesn't fade but continues to captivate and impress for years to come. What's cooler than cool? The inclusion of 3M™ Smog-Reducing Granules — a nod to our commitment to the environment. A Pinnacle® Sun shingle actively contributes to a cleaner, greener environment by converting air pollution into water-soluble plant food — giving you the smog-fighting capacity of 2-3 trees around your home. Protecting your home goes beyond just maintaining a comfortable temperature inside. It's about ensuring your roof can stand tall against Mother Nature's unpredictable fury. You can rest easy with the assurance of a UL 2218 Class 3 impact resistance rating. These architectural shingles have proven their strength by enduring the force of a 1.75-inch steel ball plummeting from 20 feet - not once, but twice. Fun Fact Class 3 roofing materials may also help you reduce your insurance premiums. A roofing investment with Atlas also includes the benefits of our very own HP42® technology. We're talking bigger is better — these shingles give your roofing contractor a larger nailing area so they can hit their mark every time, making sure your roof stays put against winds up to 130 mph. Bigger also means that they enhance the exposure of your single, giving you a bolder, unique designer aesthetic. Elevate your home's aesthetic appeal and value with 6 beautifully cool colors.
