Metal deck roof applications

 

Skirt Angle

The extended skirt liner can be manufactured to your exact requirements. No shape or size has its restrictions.

 

Thermally Broken Extruded Sections

All Surespan SRH Roof Hatches are available using thermally broken extruded sections, offering clients excellent energy conservation properties and substantially reducing internal condensation or frost formation.

This in turn reduces thermal conductivity and consequently the heat loss due to heat conduction through the roof hatch frame.

This can also be applied to Surespan's SRHG Roof Hatches.

 

Solar Powered Roof Hatches

All Surespan electrically operated roof hatches are available using solar technology, offering clients an environmentally friendly alternative.

A 12V solar panel is fitted either onto or nearby the roof hatch, harnessing solar energy to charge it's batteries and allowing the hatch to automatically open and close using a completely wireless system. This can be operated by either a wireless switch or remote control. It's batteries are fitted with a conditioned monitoring feature which sounds an alarm if they are running low or indicate a fault.

Additional options including being linked up to the building's Fire Alarm System (FAS) or Building Management System (BMS) are available. Multiple roof hatches can be operated by one solar panel.

This technology can also be applied to Surespan's SRHG glazed roof hatches.
