Cool Roof Design Options
Malarkey Highlander and Vista families include lighter CRRC-rated colors and dedicated Cool granule lines for darker looks. Title 24 / LA Title 31 relevance is color-specific by SRI — cards below flag that carefully.
Title 24 Part 6 cool-roof compliance depends on climate zone, building type, roof slope, and the exact CRRC-rated product/color (aged reflectance / SRI / emittance). We verify current ratings for your address before permitting — the cards below are design options, not a blanket eligibility claim.

Systems Legend installs
Malarkey emphasizes NEX® polymer-modified asphalt formulations in many of its shingle lines. That chemistry is one reason some homeowners and contractors look at Malarkey for hot-climate performance — alongside good ventilation, underlayment, and flashing, which still matter regardless of brand.
Legend specifies Malarkey as a complete system and confirms current product names, colors, and warranty documents at proposal time. We do not invent certifications or coverage years for this brand.
