Total Torch Warm Deck Roofing System
Verified by manufacturer over a year ago
Description
Two or three layer system incorporating a range of SBS-modified elastomeric bitumen membranes with a high strength polyester carrier; vapour control layers, insulation and accessories.
Total Torch membranes incorporate a special striped pattern. This advanced vapour release technology has been specially designed to dissipate any moisture vapour that may be trapped in the roofing system. When this trapped moisture begins to warm up it can form pressure pockets within the system. The Total Torch Vapour Dispersion Layer and the Total Torch Vapour Control Layer have been specially engineered to neutralize this potential problem. Once the Total Torch Vapour Control layer has been bonded to the substrate, heat is applied to its specially designed stripes onto which the insulation is fixed. Only Thermazone Torch-on insulation is approved for use within the Total Torch system, as its superior facings and dimensionally stable insulant are ideal for this form of installation.
