Sealant pouch system for adhering roofing shingles

A method installation, comprising:

• obtaining a plurality of roofing shingles,
• wherein each shingle of the plurality of shingles includes a reveal portion and a headlap portion;
• obtaining a plurality of adhesive pouches,
• wherein each pouch comprise:
• an adhesive;
• and
• an outer film encasing the adhesive,
• wherein the outer film is configured to rupture when subjected to a temperature above a predetermined threshold;
• installing a first plurality of shingles on a roof so as to form a first row;
• placing at least one adhesive pouch on the reveal portion of each shingle in the first row;
• installing a second plurality of shingles on the roof to form a second row;
• wherein the headlap portion of each shingle of the second row of shingles are installed over the reveal portion of each shingle of the first row resulting in the second row overlapping the first row;
• wherein at least a portion of the headlap of the second row directly contacts the adhesive pouch;
• allowing the temperature of the adhesive pouches to rise above the predetermined threshold, causing the outer film to rupture and the adhesive to be released and results in the adhesive directly contacting both the headlap portion of the shingles in the second row and the reveal portion of the shingles in the first row;
• and
• sealing the second row of shingles to the first row of shingles.

A method of installation comprising:

• installing at least one shingle defining a headlap portion and a reveal portion
• wherein each having opposed upper and lower surfaces;
• placing at least one adhesive pouch on the lower surface of the reveal portion,
• wherein the adhesive pouch comprising:
• an adhesive with a viscosity of 25 cps to 2500 cps;
• and
• an outer film encasing the adhesive,
• wherein the outer film is configured to rupture when subjected to a sufficient force;
• applying a sufficient force to the shingle so the pouch ruptures and results in the adhesive directly contacting both the reveal portion;
• and
• sealing the shingle to a roof substate.
