   Enjoy a clean roof this spring
 There are several rea- sons why you should cleanyourroof—none
of which is as important as prolonging your roof’s lifes- pan. You may look at your roof and think, “Wow, it’s so dirty!” The sad truth is that it’s not that dirty at all. It actually is infested with a moldy bacterium known as Gloeocapsa magma, and it is prematurely deteriorating your roof. Early deteriora- tion means early replace- ment, which in turn means giving up your hard-earned money before you should have to.
This mold weakens roofs in a multitude of ways, par- ticularly with its filament root system. This root sys- tem not only burrows into the roof surface, causing cracks or fissures, but the
byproduct of photosynthe-
y
s
 sis that it excretes is highly acidic. Once the Gloeo-
 capsa spreads, it allows colonies of even more ag-
 gressive bacteria — such as
mold, moss and lichens — to thrive and expedite roof de-
s
f
f
t
r
terioration. These menaces are the darkening you see.
This then leads to another serious problem with heat. Because your roof has be- come much darker, the heat it absorbs is significantly higher — in many cases, by as much as 60 degrees or
more. This excessive heat is transferred into the attic space and bottom side of the roofing substrate, which, for asphalt shingle, will begin to dry out the petroleum base and lead to cracks and leaks. The heat that is trapped un- der the roof then begins to heat up with anything that it engages — including duct-
ing, walls, pipes and ceilings — causing the home to be much hotter and harder to cool, and making your air conditioner units work harder than necessary.
This ultimately leads to higher energy bills and the possibility of having to pre- maturely replace A/C units. Every type of roof, whether
s
 o
   It usually starts as streaking
g
 and quickly overtakes the
entire roof. Once the roof is covered, there is no pro-
e
  tection from the UV light of the sun. Most manufactur-
 ers incorporate some form
m
 of UV protection to reflect the light and heat.

LET’S TALK FLOORING
One of the worst things to happen with new
flooring is improper SUBFLOOR PREPARATION. Whether the floor was too bumpy or excess moisture wasn’t addressed, it can ruin your whole investment! We see mold and other install problems all the time. Learn how to avoid this and about so much more at our free monthly seminar. ALOHA, Shirley
