However, apart from these situations, soft washing before applying GoNano is mainly for aesthetic reasons, as clients often want their roof to look new. It's important to note that dirt will not affect the performance of a GoNano application. However, once GoNano is applied, soft washing afterward will no longer be effective at removing stains, and the bleach formula used in soft washing could eventually impact the integrity of the GoNano application. Therefore, we strongly recommend soft washing a dirty roof beforehand.</p></div></div><div class="accordion-item-2-copy"><div id="q6" class="accordion-item-trigger"><h4 class="accordion-heading"><strong>What do insurance companies think about this?

While it does depend on the specific case, all one needs to do is contact their insurer and discuss the GoNano option. Most insurance companies are now aware of our product and recognize the benefits of applying GoNano to prolong a roof's lifespan.</p></div></div><div class="accordion-item-2-copy"><div id="q6" class="accordion-item-trigger"><h4 class="accordion-heading"><strong>How long does the treatment continue to have this effect?</strong><br/></h4><div class="icon-2 accordion-icon">keyboard_arrow_down</div></div><div class="accordion-item-content"><p class="faq-paragraph">The water beading effect will diminish after about 5-8 years, depending on the local weather conditions, but this does not impact the product's performance.
