Apply Ice and Water Shield to Valleys

My FIRST TIME Roofing. NEVER AGAIN! (EP.8)
What happens here
The next step is applying the freeze and water barrier (ice and water shield), which is only required in certain snowy regions but is a good practice for valleys. The presenter emphasizes the importance of layering all roofing components from bottom-up, ensuring water trickles down correctly. This self-adhering membrane is applied by unrolling it, finding the middle, peeling off the backing, and pressing it down. He highlights that for this product, rolling it on is not required, as the sun's heat activates the adhesive. The freeze barrier is applied along the valleys, which are the most susceptible areas to leaks.
Goal: Install a protective layer against ice and water in vulnerable roof areas
