Is anyone FOaming Roofs?

I would like to explore your experiences. I haven't ever foamed but could reduce run off.

I think there might be small thread about it but the person to realy ask is Apple roof cleaning.

We did for a while. It takes too long to cover a roof with foam. ( My opinion )

I foamed a roof for a family member, it actually worked quite well...

The arguments I have heard are it takes to long and uses alot more chemical...Never done it though

I would think that the main reason to foam a roof would be to allow extra working time for the product. This may be fine on a walkable roof,...but when you really need it to stick extra good is on the steep roofs when runoff is the main concern. But considering these roofs are also not walkable it seems to me that shooting the product from the roof edge with foam would maybe create an issue with getting any distance with foam,...plus I think it would be way to susceptible to even the slightest breeze.

Does chlorine foam up adequately? What were the results of the foam? Clean or Not? On some homes I spend too much time prepping the landscape. Was time the magor issue? How does the foam react to wind and sun? Is there much less runoff. Cleaning time increase?
