RULE 25.6D - ROOF RATING FACTORS

Applies To: Premier - YES, Premier Plus - YES, Premier Select - YES,
Premier Condo - NO, Premier Renters - NO

A roof rating factor may be applied based on the roof covering material on the dwelling. Our base premium reflects standard roof covering materials.

A factor will apply if the current roof covering meets U.L. Standard 2218 (or acceptable equivalent testing). The qualifying roof must have been installed after May 31, 1996 and must not be overlaid onto an existing roof. Verification that a roof passes Class 3 or 4 will need to be submitted to Underwriting. Wood roofs, wood shingle roofs and composition over wood roofs do not qualify as a Class 3 or Class 4.

A factor will also apply if a roof is wood, wood shingle or composition over wood.

This factor will be applied to the base premium.
