📊 What GoNano Testing Means for New Brunswick Homeowners
🔬 GoNano testing terminology can be useful, but only if it is explained honestly. Homeowners do not need a lab report dumped on them. They need to understand what the evidence supports, what it does not support, and why their own roof still needs assessment.
🏠 A simple translation of the evidence
UL 790 is connected to fire testing under tested configurations. UL 2218 is connected to impact classification under lab conditions. ASTM D3161 is connected to wind resistance testing. FTIR is a molecular analysis tool that can show chemical signatures and oxidation markers.
In the GoNano white-paper material, these categories support a serious technical conversation around roof preservation. They do not replace a roof assessment.
Why local roof condition still comes first
A roof in Fredericton, Moncton, Saint John, or rural New Brunswick may have different exposure from another roof the same age. UV, wind, snow, ice, shade, algae, moss, and freeze-thaw cycles can change shingle condition.
GoNano NuRoof Fortify may be relevant for a qualifying asphalt shingle roof, but that suitability depends on what the roof shows today.
The strongest evidence is still practical
The practical question is not, ‘Was there testing?’ The better question is, ‘How does the testing guide a responsible decision for this roof?’
NanoSeal NB should use testing to support education, not to pressure a homeowner. If the roof qualifies, preservation can be discussed. If it does not, the assessment should point the homeowner toward repair or replacement planning.
Questions to ask before deciding
- Which GoNano test category is relevant to my concern?
- What roof conditions would make the test evidence less applicable?
- Is the company avoiding guarantees and explaining limits?
- What does my roof assessment show before any product is recommended?
- How New Brunswick weather wears down asphalt shingles
- Preservation versus replacement

Next step
Request a complimentary roof assessment from NanoSeal NB before assuming replacement is the only option. The useful outcome is practical: understand the current condition of the shingles, whether the roof is a suitable candidate for preservation, and what questions should be answered next.
