Modified bitumen membrane is the best rubber to use for a roof valley.
Roof membrane leak detection.
As a former professional roofer i m proud to provide leak detection and roof monitoring systems that protect buildings and assets around the world chris eichhorn president ild in the late 1990 s i brought efvm technology over from germany and adapted it for the north american market.
Leaks can happen anywhere.
Efvm may be used with protected and conventional membrane assemblies.
Electronic leak detection requires three conditions for accurate testing.
Breaches are found by detecting a water path to building ground.
Infrared leak detection can tell you where that water is.
Water leaks can happen in any room s floors walls or even the ceiling.
Using electronically charged bristles it is an non intrusive roof leak detection method can identify problematic areas with pinpoint precision.
Has to be high enough to stop water pouring in.
The wider membrane prevents leaks when ice builds up.
You may find damage in rooms you never expected like a living room or sunroom.
International leak detection s ild electric field vector mapping efvm is a integrity test system that enables locating of moisture infiltration points through horizontal membrane applications such as green roofs plaza decks and containment liners.
Clogged drains gutters and downspouts can increase the weight load on the roof speed up the deterioration of the roof membrane cause leaks and leads to the growth of algae.
Electronic leak detection eld is a non destructive diagnostic used to identify water leak entry and areas of trapped water within a flat or low pitched roof construction.
Superior electronic leak detection testing for vertical horizontal waterproofing roofing membranes including black epdm.
Inexperienced roof technicians that would install shingles like this.
A grounding medium beneath the membrane to receive the electric current typically a structural concrete deck metal deck or alternative grounding medium a membrane that is electrically nonconductive and no electrically insulating materials between the membrane and the ground.
We had to remove shingles to make way for a broader rubber roof membrane.
Condensation within a roof insulation system is a typical example in which the capacitance meter readings will be elevated with no associated roof leak as a cause of the elevated readings.
The integriscan is a low voltage quality control test that pinpoints breaches in roofing or waterproofing assemblies.
