A light-coloured covering in San Fernando measurably lowers attic temperature and takes load off the air conditioning. Sealant is the first casualty in San Fernando; it shrinks, cracks and pulls away from every penetration within a few seasons.

Daylight through the sheathing tells you more than anything visible from the driveway.
