Inspire Roofing Products\u2019 Arcella Shake<\/p><\/div>Inspire Roofing Products<\/a>\u2019 Arcella Shake is changing the concept of shake roof architecture. Carrying a limited lifetime warranty, it combines optimum fire protection with no maintenance ever being required.<\/p>\n

The Inspire Arcella Shake Roofing System carries a Class A fire rating, meaning it\u2019s tested in accordance with Underwriters Laboratories\u2019 \u201csevere\u201d fire exposure testing. In comparison, much wood shake roofing carries no fire rating at all. Many municipalities prohibit wooden roofs because of inherent fire risk. For communities that require Class A roofing or that deal with arid conditions, high wind and the combustible fuel of crackly brush, Inspire\u2019s composite engineering offers a complete solution. Inspire removes fuel from potential fires with protection that could mean the difference in a roof and home surviving flying embers versus succumbing to them in flames.<\/p>\n

According the U.S.D.A.\u2019s Forest Products Laboratory, failure from decay in natural wood shake can occur in less than 10 years. But with Inspire\u2019s line of genuine cedar colors, homeowners capture the look and texture of gorgeous cedar for as long as they own their home.<\/p>\n

Inspire Arcella Shake is available in four rich colors that characterize nature\u2019s warmth. Aged Cedar, New Cedar, Cedar Brown and Weathered Grey deliver handsome charm to complete a home\u2019s classic look. Within each genuine color selection, two or three delicate shade variations deliver both a unified color field and unique authenticity. By comparison, other manufacturers\u2019 synthetic shake has variations that veer further from a main color, perpetuating a mottled roof and calling authenticity into question.<\/p>\n

To enhance the natural, handcrafted look, Inspire features a mix of 10-, 7 1\/2- and 5-inch shake widths. Each Arcella Shake color selection is factory-sorted to deliver the ideal, ready-made proportions of shake width and nuanced color. Underlying the shakes\u2019 authentic beauty, Inspire\u2019s Arcella Shake\u2019s innovative mineral filled polyolefin composition handles beastly weather; fierce wind-driven rain, Class 4 hail impact, sea-spray and 110 mph winds. Durability combines with meticulous realism reflecting hand-split cedar wood. By exactly mirroring nature\u2019s texture, Inspire Arcella Shake produces deep dimension, long wood grain striations and wondrous interplays of light and shadow. All the attraction of shake roofing is delivered with significantly lower investments in money and time.<\/p>\n

Since it is virtually maintenance-free, Inspire relieves homeowners from chores that risk safety. They don\u2019t have to get the ladder out and scale the roof to perform work at dangerous heights, or hire someone. Inspire\u2019s impermeability and toughness deliver valuable protection for coastal homes, standing up to extreme storms and years of saltwater-laden gusts. Its InFlex cambered design means fasteners hold the shakes snugly to the roof. Locking tabs provide easy installation and also protect against wind-driven rain, preventing water penetration for a structurally-sound roof.<\/p>\n

Inspire Arcella Shake\u2019s durability also makes it the sustainable cedar alternative. There\u2019s no forced reliance on chemical treatments that need to be repeated every several years for wood shakes that could themselves need replacement in less than 20 years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
