INSTALLATION GUIDE
Introduction
Table of Contents
Thank you for choosing Ross Roof Group for your project. The following installation
guide is specifically intended for the Meridian shingle product range featuring a direct
to deck application. The installation guide is designed to assist design & building
professionals on Ross Roof Group’s recommended installation guideline for each roof
detail. This guide does not cover all areas of each individual roof. The guide covers the
majority of commonly referred-to roof details. Local building codes always supersede the
manufacturer’s recommendations. We highly recommended using a licensed & insured
roofing contractor to install any roofing system. Please contact Ross Roof Group at any
time through the installation should a detail not be covered in the installation guide. Also
refer to the warranty for helpful tips on maintaining your roof’s performance. Thank you
again for choosing Ross Roof Group.
