PREPARE EARLY FOR HAILSTORMS
- If you need to re-roof select an impact-resistant roof covering. These products have passed the UL2218 impact test with a rating of Class 1 through 4. Class 4 (most resistant) has proven to be highly effective in hailstorms.
- Make sure your roof covering is impact-resistant. Do not rely on building codes or regulations to protect you. Look for the UL2218 label on the package and literature confirming the product has passed this test.
- Listen to weather updates and reports on hail activity.
- Stay indoors until the storm subsides.
- Close your drapes, blinds or window shades to prevent the wind from blowing potential broken glass inside.
