Fasto Roofing highlights the advantages of using algae-resistant shingles, particularly in humid climates where algae growth can be a persistent issue.
Why Choose Algae-Resistant Shingles?
Higher Property Value
Enhanced Appearance: Algae create dark spots on shingles, affecting the roof’s symmetry and overall curb appeal. Algae-resistant shingles retain their appearance, maintaining your home’s curb appeal and potentially increasing its value.
Better Energy Efficiency
Temperature Control: Algae-induced dark spots absorb more heat from the sun, raising your attic's temperature and increasing your home's internal temperature. Algae-resistant shingles help maintain better energy efficiency by preventing these dark spots.
Reduced Maintenance
Less Frequent Cleaning: Traditional methods to remove algae, such as roof replacement or power washing, can be costly and potentially damaging to roofing materials. Algae-resistant shingles eliminate the need for such frequent maintenance.
Conclusion
Upgrading to algae-resistant shingles can improve your home's value, energy efficiency, and reduce maintenance needs.
