I thought I heard they are adding copper to the roofing mix to stop this.

Great looking results with that low pressure roof cleaning!

Algae Resistant (AR as they call them) shingles are coated with a copper oxide, but the warranty is only 8-15 years depending on the brand and quality level opf the shingle.

Keep up the great work.
