Re: Guesstimates?

How would this typcially be attached to the roof structure?

1) Would it be mechanically fastened down through the eps insulation into the deck? Or
2) would it be adhered to the poly which is mechanically fastened to the deck?
3) Or maybe the poly is mech. attached and the membrane is also mech. attached to the deck?


thanks.

Yes, the 80 Mill IB Roof System would be very durable in winter conditions.

A friend from Schindler Roofing out of Utah swears by it and they have pretty extreme winters in his area.

The white reflective properties are a tremendous energy saver, without requiring maintenance. Also, if add on or repairs ever need to be done, it is quite easily repaired with an electric hot air heat welder gun and a scrap of material.

Mechanically attached typically. I am not familiar enough with alternative securement methods allowed by them, but fully adhered might also be allowed.
