How many nails are recommended to be put in a standard asphalt shingle in low wind areas?

  1. 2

  2. 3

  3. 4

  4. 5

The correct answer is: 2

In low wind areas, it is recommended to use two nails when installing a standard asphalt shingle. This is because in areas with lower wind speeds, two nails are typically sufficient to secure the shingle in place. Using fewer nails in low wind areas can help reduce material and installation costs without sacrificing the structural integrity of the installation. Option B, C, and D are not the correct choices because they suggest using more nails than necessary for areas with low wind exposure, which could be considered excessive and unnecessary for the specific conditions of low wind areas.
