Asphalt FiberglassRoof Shingles“Why do people want shingles for their
roof?” Answer: Shingles look distinctive, give a natural look, and provide the architectural style desired for the house. In one word, aesthetics. “What in shingles can defeat this goal?” Answer: Through the years, algae can infect the roof in highly humid areas.
“What happens to roofs infected with algae?” Answer: Roofing materials that are exposed to high humidity get discolored and stained. This is true not only for shingles but also for other types of roofs. These dark stains are algae growth. They can cover the entire roof after some years and make the roof look ugly indeed. “How do we prevent algae from attacking the roof?” Answer: To eliminate algae growth, CertainTeed produces Algae Resistant (AR) shingles.
“How are shingles made algae resis-tant?”
Answer: Shingle surfaces are covered with ceramic granules to give color. In AR shingles, these granules are embedded with copper oxide. The copper leaches gradually over time, especially when it rains, and kills algae organisms that come in contact with shingles.
With this protection, CertainTeed AR shingles help maintain the natural beauty, color and distinctive appeal of your roof for years. “Why is it worth your money to invest in AR shingles?” Answer: An important part in the appeal of your house comes from your roof. It represents more than 50% of its exterior. A roof that is unprotected from algae attack suffers more than discoloration. The roof is stained and loses its beauty and natural look.
“Instead of buying AR shingles, may we just apply paints with algicide on shingles?”
Answer: Paints with algicide may apply well on concrete and metal roofs without side effects. But their chemical composition may damage the integrity and performance of asphalt shingles. “Do shingle manufacturers provide warran-ties on roofs coated with algicide paints?”
Answer: Because of the possible harm on the asphalt, asphalt shingles manufacturers will withdraw the warranty on their roofing material applied with such paints.
“Does algicide coating of shingles offer long term solution to algae attacks?” Answer: Application on shingles of paints with algicide offers dubious protection from algae attacks. These paints are brushed on the exterior of ceramic granules. With the direct exposure of the
roof to heat, cold, wind and rain, the paint may peel and wash off the granules, unlike the AR shingles' copper oxide which is embedded within the ceramic granules.
“What models of CertainTeed are Algae Resistant (AR)?” Answer: The following shingle models have algae resistance with a warranty of 10 years: CT20 AR and Landmark AR Series. The following have a warranty of 15 years: Grand Manor, Carriage House, Presidential Shake, Landmark TL. “But your AR shingles may be more expen-sive than others.” Answer: We are the exclusive distributor of the largest manufacturer of shingles in the world - CertainTeed (USA).
