Thickness has little to do with the durability of this material and it all wears out at about the same rate.
Tpo roof rating.
45 mils 045 or 60 mils 060.
Please contact the firestone codes approvals department when looking for a specific classification or rating.
This means that having a tpo roof on your home or building will keep the interior thermally comfortable on hot summer days while reducing your air conditioning costs.
Ultraply tpo invisiweld system the firestone ultraply tpo invisiweld system is a high performance non penetrating tpo membrane fastening system.
Wide and 100 ft.
For most residential applications tpo membranes come in two thicknesses options.
Tpo s long term heat uv and natural fungal resistance plus flexibility without need for plasticizers also make tpo a reliable low slope.
Unfortunately this is not the case.
Tpo roofing systems 101.
Here at west roofing systems we ve been installing single ply membrane roofing for over 38 years.
As one of the most common roof types of big commercial facilities tpo has some of the best energy savings for single ply membrane roofing.
The width and length of the membrane can vary depending on the manufacturer with a typical tpo membrane roll being 6 to 6 5 ft.
Mechanically attached it provides high wind uplift ratings and offers simplified installation that reduces labor and material costs.
Tpo compounds have changed in recent years so it is impossible to say how long current roofs will last but a general estimate puts a tpo roof between 10 and 20 years.
Sure weld tpo membranes are energy star qualified and cool roof rating council crrc certified.
The cool roof rating council was created in 1998 to develop accurate and credible methods for evaluating and labeling the solar reflectance and thermal emittance radiative properties of roofing products and to disseminate the information to all interested parties.
This line is also available in extra thickness of 135 and 155 mil.
Tpo s membrane s white reflective surface exceeds the epa s energy star requirements and white tan and gray are listed with the cool roof rating council.
Installation is important when it comes to putting a single ply roofing system on a building and there are over 140 standard tpo details available from carlisle syntec.
The firestone ultraply tpo roofing systems have also been tested for their wind uplift resistance in accordance with the ueatc eota and fm guidelines resulting in several wind uplift ratings.
