Your asp.net app doesn't have to be aware of ssl certificate, nor you have to change anything in the code. But, you should add routing rules to redirect all http requests to https endpoint, with asp.net routing (in web.config or in iis if you have access, but since its shared hosting then no I guess).
SSL are quite cheap now, price going from 6-7$/year/domain for the cheapest one (no company verification, etc), or even free with LetsEncrypt (I'm using that one with asp.net, but it needs to be renewed every 3 months!)
