New product to protect A/C units and grow your roofing business by The Catch-All

By Jesse Sanchez. 

The Catch-All offers a new, fast, one-person setup that’s changing how roofers protect A/C units and outshine their competition. 

Roofing crews are no strangers to long days, tough conditions and failing equipment while often dealing with tarps that rip, blow away, or fail to protect where it matters most. One area that’s been neglected for far too long? The A/C unit. These expensive systems often take a beating during re-roofs, leading to costly homeowner complaints and callbacks. But a new tool is changing the game: The Catch-All’s A/C Shield. 

How is it better than plywood or tarps? The A/C Shield is a custom-fitted protection system designed specifically for roofers. Using telescopic poles and a tailored mesh cover, it quickly wraps around the unit to create a sturdy cage. That means shingles, nails and debris never reach the A/C in the first place. No more clogged fins, punctured lines, dented housings or awkward calls about “mysterious damage” after your crew has already left. 

How fast is setup? Most crews can have the A/C Shield deployed in under 5-10 minutes. Only one crew member is needed. So while they handle the setup, the rest can start tearing off. And because of its breathable netting, it can even be set up the night before, ensuring a fast start the next morning. 

And here’s where it goes beyond protection: presentation. A tarp draped over an A/C looks unprofessional at best and a liability at worst. The A/C Shield, on the other hand, looks like it belongs there. Neighbors walking by see a professional-grade system, not a patch job. That visibility turns into marketing ROI by showing every homeowner on the block how serious you are about protecting property. 

The A/C Shield is the newest addition to The Catch-All product line, joining the Job Site Protection Kit and Shrub Shield. Together, these tools give roofers a full suite of solutions to protect siding, landscaping, gutters and now the A/C unit itself. 

For roofers aligned with any major shingle brand, from GAF to Owens Corning® to Malarkey Roofing Products®, the A/C Shield is a universal upgrade in both efficiency and professionalism. It’s also HOA-friendly and designed to reduce callbacks, cleanup and client frustration. In a trade where time is money and reputation is everything, The A/C Shield is more than just a cover, it’s peace of mind. 

Take control of your job site, protect your clients’ investments and grow your roofing business with The Catch-All’s A/C Shield.
