It has been durability tested to over 40 years. It exceeds all UL standard tests for durability. So the guarantee, the strongest warranty in the industry, covers the contractor for 10 years for parts and labor for any failure in Aeroseal seal but Aeroseal seal itself has proven to last for decades.
