Learn more about how GAF Energy makes solar easy

An installer working for a home builder is installing Timberline Solar ES 2 shingles on the roof of a new home.

Easy to install. Reliability you can depend on.

Designed with builders and roofers in mind, Timberline Solar® ES 2 is a durable, lightweight, nailable shingle that installs along with the rest of the roof. There are no racking structures to trap debris or potentially void existing roof warranties. They’re built to function like an asphalt shingle, protecting against rain and snow, and have been approved by the State of Florida for installation in designated High Velocity Hurricane Zones.

We’ve been making roofing products and delivering on our promises for over 100 years. Our Timberline Solar® roof systems are no different --- backed by industry-leading warranties.
