If there is already a leak, of course many builders and investors think differently about a timely warning system on their flat roofs. One thing is certain: With the Protect roof, which is available at VEDAG, it would not have led to the damage.
VEDAG Protect roof is a fixed installed leak detection system. It is the only system on the market, of which both the waterproofing products and the monitoring for clotted roof systems are completely coming from one source. It consists of an electrical high conductive stainless steel measuring lattice as well as contact plates, which will be integrated directly into the area to be protected.
As soon as water is entering into the insulation layer at any place, the interruption source can be precisely located with the system. So the fault correction is a calculable process and can be done prompt and uncomplicated. This is also a clear profit from the economical point of view.
In the long term, the ongoing additional costs are getting reduced to a minimum thanks to Protect roof. Compared to other suppliers, the roof monitoring system, which is offered by the VEDAG GmbH, still has more clear advantages: The corresponding complete VEDAG flat roof system including the integrated Protect roof is tested and confirmed to all requirements in the system, which occur on the roof. And the leak detection system, which is fixed installed, can resort to an over 20 year sophisticated technology.
The installation of Protect roof is taken place below the waterproofing. There, the roofer installs the high conductive stainless steel measuring lattice and connects it to a contact switch by a cable. On top of the waterproofing an identically voltage is brought over the measuring cable. Even with a minimal contact with water it immediately results to the closing of the electrical circuit. The leak can be located exactly and resolved cheaply.
These are advantages which are experiential already important at the construction area. Particularly flat roofs are often workplace, storage and transportation route for many other trades during the building shell phase. For this reason the planners and executors want to play safe and deliver a trade with tested leak tightness. If damage or an execution error has led to a leak, it can be located and removed cheaply by Protect roof by the roofer.
With the use of Protect roof time-consuming search processes will be avoided, which is particularly brought to bear on green roofs or gravelled roofs. The monitoring system offers the possibility to check the tightness at any time over the life expectancy of the object and therefore saves high follow-up costs.
This simple way of periodical control provides maximum safety for building owners - and users. Protect roof contains the measuring adjustment (measuring lattice, measuring cable, contact plate, contact switch) optionally as well the test measurement with extensive documentation. An individual offer will be created object-based.
