Expert Verdict Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

Grand Canyon’s larger 17 x 40 in. format and 5 in. exposure create a bold dimensional shadow line; the 130 MPH wind rating suits exposed sites. With 6 bundles per square and 77 lb bundles, budget labor and staging accordingly. Install per GAF application instructions over GAF underlayment and starter to keep the assembly consistent with the published ratings.

Shingle bundles are heavy and roofing work is done at height; use ladder safety, fall protection, and team lifting for 77 lb bundles.
