SOLAR RESOURCES FOR ROOFING CONTRACTORS

Solar PROTect™

ROOF WITH SOLAR

Solar panel installation doesn’t have to be a stand-alone “add on” project – selling a roof and solar separately. The Solar PROtect™ Program provides you with helpful solar resources and teaches you to present the value of solar done right: selling them together, a roof with solar†.

Homeowners are looking for energy-efficient upgrades, and the demand for residential solar installation is heating up. As a roofing contractor, you’re already in the perfect position to help meet that demand. The Solar PROtect™ Program gives you the tools, training, resources, and first-of-its-kind limited warranty coverage you need to confidently install a roof with solar panels and help grow your business.

SOLAR PROTECT™ PROGRAM

TOTAL PROTECTION SIMPLIFIED®

The Solar PROtect™ Program is designed to build on the Owens Corning® Total Protection Roofing System®, which is an integrated system of shingles and roofing components designed to help provide a strong, high-performing foundation that supports long-term durability.

This roofing system goes beyond shingles, helping contractors deliver roofing solutions that can help protect against moisture and the elements, and support proper ventilation. When the system is combined with properly installed solar mounts by a Certified Solar PRO, it helps provide a strong base to install your new solar system.
