Roofing Washington, One Home at a Time
Atlas Pinnacle Sun is a cool-roof architectural shingle with reflective granules that help reduce heat absorption on sunny Northwest days.
Pinnacle Sun is Atlas's reflective, cool-roof laminate shingle, engineered with specially designed granules that bounce back a portion of the sun's energy to help keep attics cooler during our increasingly warm Puget Sound summers. It combines this energy-conscious performance with the attractive dimensional profile and algae-resistant protection Atlas is known for, so homeowners get efficiency without sacrificing looks. While the Northwest is famous for rain, our sunny stretches can heat up poorly ventilated attics, making a reflective shingle a thoughtful choice for comfort and energy savings. The laminate construction still delivers the durability and curb appeal expected of a quality architectural roof. Pinnacle Sun is a forward-looking option for homeowners focused on efficiency and sustainability.
