when the guy across the street had his roof done in teh winter they thew these big heating pads over it to make it seal together good… they were big orange rubber blanket looking things that were 8X8… the contracter said they use it to heat up the shingels to make them come off better and then heat the new roof to make it seal better… seems like a good idea… they had 2 or 3 of them up there

Sure, but that doesn’t compare to the energy the sun puts on that tar in July.
