WYOMING JR. HIGH AVOIDS ROOF TEAR-OFF

Education is fundamental to change, progress, and innovation. Our educational institutions must be protected, both in figurative and literal terms. Triton recognizes the importance of education in our society and engineers innovative roofing technologies that protect educational facilities for decades.

This particular Jr. High School in windy Wyoming had battled leaking on 15,500 square feet of roof, causing disruption to the school’s daily operation. Maintaining the roof was particularly difficult, as the existing EPDM membrane was covered with a layer of insulation board and rock ballast. Finding and fixing leaks was no easy feat and only drove up roof repair costs.

 

The school needed to act fast, but had budget constraints to work within. A disruptive, expensive tear-off was averted with the TritoFlex 2K Rubber membrane. The rock ballast and wet insulation board would have to be removed, but the existing EPDM membrane could be salvaged and utilized to the school’s advantage. 4 Elements Roofing ensured the existing EPDM membrane was secure and properly repaired before spraying it with a single, instantly rain-resistant coat of 80 mil (2 mm) TritoFlex Rubber. This new liquid membrane capitalizes on the existing membrane’s pliability and durability, creating an ultra-thick waterproofing layer.

With extremely high elongation, high tensile strength, a Class A fire rating, and a warranty that covers hail and ponding water, the TritoFlex system not only saved the school district money, it provided them a more durable, longer lasting roof membrane in the end. The roof was finished off with the TritoTherm ceramic coating to reduce surface temperature, reduce heat transfer, and provide a sacrificial layer. This allows the roof to be sustained indefinitely.

Unleashing the potential of the human mind through education, and combining it with decades of practical experience and common sense, is what leads companies like Triton to change their industries with progressive technologies.
