Why is wind resistance so important?
Even if you don’t live in tornado or hurricane country, standing up to wind is very important. High velocity winds caused by firestorms can blow burning embers. High winds will cause most roofing to blow off or in the case of concrete or clay tile to rise in the front allowing the embers to blow under the roof. Gerard’s secured with four penny nails in the front. No flying embers can pass under a Gerard roof.
