| Haag Engineering announces Shingle Gauge revisions Haag Engineering has announced the release of a revised second generation Shingle Gauge. This popular tool is a unique Haag invention used by residential roofing inspectors and insurance adjusters to measure the approximate warranty of 3-tab organic, 3-tab fiberglass or laminated asphalt composition shingles. The device, similar to a metal ruler, provides measurements useful in specifying the warranty range of replacement shingles. The latest revision of the second generation Shingle Gauge is updated to reflect the current base warranty level of 30 years for laminated shingles compared to the previous 25 year level. Updates to the tool do not affect the 3-tab organic or 3-tab fiberglass side of the gauge, which is still in alignment with current warranties. Owners of the previous release of the second generation Shingle Gauge can still use their existing gauge to get correct measurements by making a few minor adjustments. A replacement Shingle Gauge is not needed. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
