FLAT ROOFING

Flat to low slope Commercial and Industrial

Types of Flat Roof Materials and Their Differences BUR – Built Up Roofing Modified – Modified Bitumen EPDM – Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer TPO - Thermoplastic Polyolefin PVC – Polyvinyl Chloride Others – Hybrids, Metal etc

Multiple plies of: Saturated felts, coated felts,

fabrics, or mats assembled in place with alternate layers of bitumen, and surfaced with rock, coating, or cap sheet.

BUILT UP ROOFING“Old School” – Tar and Gravel

BUILT UP ROOFING

Advantages: Tough “Name” recognition Length of time on market

Disadvantages: Not energy efficient Cost Equipment / Experience Manufactured from the residues of the asphalt and petroleum

industries Disruptive installation – (Hot Tar/Odor) If installed correctly.......very expensive (tear-off, tapered)

Warranties from 5-25 years depending on manufacturer and application

MODIFIED BITUMEN

A bitumen modified by including one or more polymers (e.g., atactic polypropylene, styrene butadiene styrene, etc.)

Composite sheets consisting of a polymer modified bitumen often reinforced with various types of mats or films and sometimes surfaced with films, foils or mineral granules.

Advantages: Tough, Market penetration / availability and Materials Cost

Disadvantages: Typically not energy efficient, Installation methods and Long term

costs Manufactured from the residues of the asphalt and petroleum

industries Dangerous / Disruptive installation (odor, open flame) If installed correctly.......very expensive (tear-off, tapered)


MODIFIED BITUMEN

EPDM (Rubber)ETHYLENE PROPYLENE DIENE MONOMER

Manufactured from the residues of the rubber industry (Firestone)

Ballasted applications popular....tape seams

If installed correctly.......very expensive (tear-off, tapered)


Advantages: Flexible/ Market penetration / availability/Materials & Install Cost

Disadvantages: Typically not energy efficient/ Adhesion to self/ Long term costs/

Fire

EPDM (Rubber)ETHYLENE PROPYLENE DIENE MONOMER

TPOTHERMOPLASTIC POLYOLEFIN

A blend of polypropylene and ethylene-propylene polymers.

Colorant, flame retardants, UV absorbers and other proprietary substances may be blended with the TPO to achieve the desired physical properties.

May or may not be reinforced.

Environmentally Friendlier

PVCPOLYVINYL CHLORIDE

A synthetic thermoplastic Polymer prepared from vinylchloride.

PVC can be compounded into flexible and rigid forms through the use of plasticizers, stabilizers, fillers and other modifiers.

Rigid forms are used in pipes;

Flexible forms are used in the manufacture of sheeting and roof membrane materials.

PVCPOLYVINYL CHLORIDE

Advantages: Flexible Energy, Efficient, Heat Welded, Materials & Install Cost

Disadvantages: Past Failures (Early 80’s) Thinner Membranes (40mil) Materials Costs PVC Roofing Material is not a by-product of another industry Ease of installation and repair Extremely minimal maintenance required


PVC INSTALLATION METHODS

Mechanically Fastened Attach roof using screws and plates Most popular method of PVC attachment Recommended when using PV Solar


Fully Adhered Roof is 'glued' down

Heat welded using a powerful hot-air blower (400 F)

Seams are the strongest part of the PVC roof

No chemicals, glues, or adhesives

PVC WELDING PVC

Various materials including 5” Polyisocyanurate insulation, Fanfold insulation with 6mil Polyethelene film vapor barrier

PVC INSULATION & SLIPSHEETS

Serve Multiple Purposes: Add ‘R’ value to the facility Provide separation between PVC and old roofing Provide positive drainage (tapered)

SOLARSAVE® INSTALLATION OVER EXISTING ROOF

OTHER TYPES OF ROOFING MATERIALS

Coatings – Spray applied and brushed

Metal

AN EXCITING NEW SOLARROOF APPLICATION

SOLARSAVE®

THE EVOLUTION OF PV DESIGNTHE EVOLUTION OF ROOFING

The Worlds largest, lightest and most powerful crystalline solar module

SILICON SOLAR CELL TECHNOLOGIES

Thin film (Amorphous Silicon) Lowest power output ~ 5-7% efficiency

Polycrystalline Mid level power output ~ 12-15% efficiency

Monocrystalline High level power output ~ 16-18% efficiency

SolarSave™ … SunPower Monocrystalline Premium level power output > 20% Highest available in the industry today

SOLARSAVE® - PREMIERE SERIES “Everyone wants new technology but they want it to

be 25 years old”

Heat and pressure sealed multi-layer laminated construction

SP 450: 48” x 96” x ¼” module, 450 Watts

SP 225: 48” x 50” x ¼” module, 225 Watts Electrical compatibility with SP-450 module

Integrated with PVC single-ply roofing membrane Used as roofing material for 50 years 20 year material warranty

Industry leading energy output Up to 15 watts/ft²

Lightweight Less than 2 lb/ft²

20 Year performance warranty

SOLARSAVE® - PREMIERE SERIESModule Construction – Performance and Durability

Enhanced flouropolymer top coat Diffuses heat Captures low levels of light … 2-5% better than glass Low surface tension … repels dirt and water better than glass

Maximizes power output in shade … embedded bypass diodes

Low Cost Installation - Conduit ready MC junction box with plug-and-play leads

UL1703 Listed, CEC Listed

Class A fire rating

SP-450 SP-225

160 monocrystalline cells - 2 parallel strings of 80 cells connected in series

80 monocrystalline cells - 1 string of 80 cells connected in series

Key Challenges Roof penetrations (rack-mounted systems) Structural weight implications (ballasted

systems) Wind uplift problems Requires waterproof substructure Creates water ponding … Roof remains

damp/wet under modules – plant growth, mold and mildew

Penetrations cause roof warranty invalidation

TRADITIONAL APPLICATIONSRACK-MOUNTED AND BALLASTED

TRADITIONAL APPLICATIONSTHIN FILM TECHNOLOGY

Key Challenges Very low power output ~ 5-7

% efficiency, 4 watts per ft²

• Requires vast roof area to generate required electricity

Individual modules are very large

• Unable to be installed around roof objects

SolarSave® is the roof … Waterproof … No roof penetrations

• No leakage risks• Doesn’t void roof warranty

Lightweight … Less than 2 lbs. ft²

• No structural reinforcement required• No water ponding• Roof stays dry, free from rot, mold and

plant growth

Building integrated … No wind uplift issues

Highest energy output in the industry Up to 15 watts per ft²

Eliminates traditional challenges for solar on new construction as well

SOLARSAVE® - THE SOLAR EVOLUTIONSOLVES ALL THE PROBLEMS WITH TRADITIONAL SYSTEMS

INSTALLATION

Standard Single-Ply Roofing Methods Mechanically Fastened Fully Adhered

Multiple PVC membranes supported TPO planned in future

Recommended method Install PVC membrane roof per

standard practice Heat-weld SolarSaveTM Membrane

modules to roof

INSTALLATION

SOLARSAVE® - INSTALLATION ADVANTAGES

EASY AND INEXPENSIVE TO INSTALL

No rack mounting hardware or heavy ballast required Lower installation labor and material costs

Module sizes allow for installation around roof objects Maximizes solar electricity output

Can be installed over existing roof No demolition and disposal costs

Fully expandable
