So why are your asphalt shingles turning
black?
Algae needs three criteria to grow - heat, moisture, and
nutrients. Gloeocapsa Magma thrives in warm humid
environments and normally appears on the north slope
where additional shade and moisture support its growth.
Gloeocapsa produces its own energy source and feeds on
inorganic materials like calcium carbonate, an asphalt
shingle filler material. Feeding on inorganic material
distinguishes algae from fungus and mildew, which require
organic material to survive. Thus, elimination of algae may
reduce fungus and mildew accumulation; so will removing
loose debris from your roof deck and gutters(leaves, twigs,
and tree bark).
These roof stains are seen in nearly eighty percent of the
United States in various degrees. In the Midwest, it is
most often confined to the north slope, while some homes
along the seaboard or gulf states may be completely
covered with algae in as little as four years. Also, this
particular algae strain has become hardier and is able to
migrate to less humid environments than it has in the past.
In areas where it traditionally has been found, staining is
manifesting earlier and more severely on a greater
number of roofs.
