Timberline CS Shingles: Cool Roof Shingles | GAF Roofing (2024)

Why Timberline® CS?

Thanks to modern reflective technology, you can join the green revolution with Timberline® CS Shingles. Our highly reflective shingles can help to reduce temperatures in your attic, so your home will stay cooler in the summer — to help save on air-conditioning costs.1 According to the Cool Roof Rating Council, cool roofs may save homeowners an average of 7–15% on their total cooling costs.1 A cool roof minimizes the solar heat gain of a building by reflecting incoming sun rays and re-emitting the absorbed energy.

  • Rebates: Some utility companies may provide incentives for using cool shingles.
  • Highest Roofing Fire Rating: UL Class A, Listed to ANSI/UL 790.
  • Peace of Mind: Lifetime limited transferable warranty with Smart Choice® Protection (non-prorated material and installation labor coverage) for the first ten years.2
  • Stays in Place: Dura Grip™ Adhesive seals each shingle tightly and reduces the risk of shingle blow-off. Shingles warranted to withstand winds up to 130 mph.3
  • 25-year StainGuard PlusAlgae Protection Limited Warranty against blue-green algae discoloration. Proprietary GAF Time-Release Algae-Fighting Technology helps protect your shingles from unsightly stains4
  • Perfect Finishing Touch: Use Ridglass® Premium Ridge Cap Shingles or Seal-A-Ridge® Ridge Cap Shingles.5

1Potential for savings depends on various factors including, but not limited to, climate zone, utility rates, location, and HVAC equipment efficiency.
