Coverage & How Much You Need:
Each bundle covers approximately 32.8 sq ft, so three bundles install one roofing square (98.4 sq ft) at the 5-5/8 in. exposure with 64 shingles per square. Measure roof area, add waste for hips, valleys and starter courses, and order by squares.
Fit and Compatibility:
Designed for use within the Owens Corning Total Protection Roofing System with Owens Corning underlayment, starter shingles, hip & ridge shingles and ventilation components. Starter shingles on eaves and rakes plus Owens Corning component requirements are needed for maximum wind warranty performance; algae resistance coverage requires an approved Owens Corning hip & ridge product.

Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
TruDefinition Duration is the right pick when you want bold color contrast and SureNail nailing-zone strength in the same laminate. Install at 5-5/8 in. exposure over approved Owens Corning underlayment and starter, nailing per the printed nailing line, and use matching Owens Corning hip & ridge to preserve algae and wind warranty coverage. For hail-prone regions this Class 3 impact-rated line is worth the step up from three-tab; if budget drives the choice, TruDefinition Oakridge offers a similar footprint with a double-layer nailing zone instead of SureNail.
Roofing installation involves work at height on potentially slippery surfaces, so use fall protection and follow the manufacturer's installation instructions and local building codes.
