Limitations on the transferability of this warranty are set forth herein.

1. Acts of God, such as hail storms;

2. Foot traffic on your roof or damage caused by objects (such as tree

3. Improper or faulty installation (installation must be in accordance with

our latest written installation instructions);

4. Metal work or other materials not furnished by Owens Corning and used

in the roofing system resulting in leaks;

7. Settlement of the structure of your home, or buckling or cracking of the

deck over which your WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier is installed;

8. Damage caused by alterations made after completion of application,

including structural changes, equipment installation, painting or the

Owens Corning.

What Is Your Remedy

In the event that any portion of your WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier allows

leaking due to a manufacturing defect, Owens Corning will contribute to the

cost of either repairing or replacing your underlayment, as its sole option and

as its sole obligation to you, as follows:

When WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier is installed in conjunction with Owens

Corning shingles, the warranty period and remedy for the Owens Corning

shingles shall apply to the WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier installed. Please

reference your Owens Corning shingle warranty to determine the warranty

remedy for the WeatherLock product installed.

When WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier is installed with shingles not manufac-

tured by Owens Corning, Owens Corning will pay you the full reasonable cost

to repair or replace any defective underlayment, including the labor to re-install

only the defective underlayment over the affected portion (exclusive of shingles,

metalwork, flashings, and other related work) and will provide replacement

underlayment material during the warranty period of five (5) years from the

date of installation.

Decisions as to the extent of repair or replacement required, whether the

WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier should be repaired or replaced, and reasonable

cost of such work, will be made solely by Owens Corning. Owens Corning

reserves the right to arrange directly for your WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier

to be repaired or replaced instead of reimbursing you for you such work. The

remedy under this warranty is available only for that portion of the WeatherLock

Ice & Water Barrier actually exhibiting defects at the time of the settlement.

The replacement WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier, as well as any remaining

original underlayment, will be warranted only for the remainder of the original

warranty period.

Who Is Covered

If you live in the United States or Canada and you are the original

consumer purchaser (i.e., the homeowner, not the installer or

contractor) of one of our WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier products

listed at the end of this warranty, you are entitled to the benefits of

this warranty.

Transferability of This Warranty

This warranty is personal to you and may not be transferred to any

subsequent purchaser of your home unless the warranty applicable to

the Owens Corning shingles applied to your roof permits a subsequent

transfer and you comply with the transfer procedures set forth in

such warranty.

How Long Are You Covered

The length of this warranty depends on the type of shingles applied

to your roof.

When WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier is installed with shingles

manufactured by Owens Corning Roofing and Asphalt, LLC

(“Owens Corning”), the length of the warranty period for the

WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier product shall be the warranty

period for the Owens Corning shingles applied to your roof, up to a

maximum warranty period of thirty (30) years. Reference your Owens

Corning shingle warranty to determine the applicable warranty period

for the WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier product installed.

When WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier is installed with shingles not

manufactured by Owens Corning, the length of the warranty period

for the WeatherLock product shall be five (5) years following the date

of installation.

What Is Covered

We warrant that this roofing product will be free from any manufac-

turing defects that materially affect its performance on your roof.

What Is Not Covered

Damage to the product due to any cause not expressly covered herein.

After our WeatherLock Ice & Water Barrier products leave the manufac-

turing facility, they are subjected to conditions and handling beyond

our control that could affect their performance. This warranty does

not cover any problems with non-defective WeatherLock Ice & Water

Barrier products caused by conditions or handling beyond our control.
