Fact or Fiction: Copper roofing is rated for resistance to the highest winds in Underwriters Laboratories' tests (UL-90).
Answer: Fact! Each year high winds cause billions of dollars of damage to buildings. Now architects and contractors have a benchmark specification for roofing that meets the most demanding wind conditions...copper roofs just happen to exceed that benchmark by quite a bit.
Missed the first one? Here's another try.
Fact or Fiction: After initial installation the value of your copper roof depreciates very little over time.
Answer: Fact again! In North America alone, approximately one half of the copper consumed annually comes from recycled material. Copper’s recycle value is so great that premium-grade scrap has at least 95 percent of the value of primary copper from newly mined ore.
