Water is a corrosive.  Would mildly wear the roofing but with
your limited use not much...
Mineral deposits with your limited usage would be minor but
still a negative factor.
The net benefit of water cooling the roof would be close to
the benefits of attic air ventilation..attic air ventilation
would not have that set of minor problems though.
Your suggestion is workable  just not the optimum as I see it.
