  • Green Roof and Cool Roof Drains

A green roof is a vegetated roof with growth media composition to support growing plants. It provides evaporative cooling, converts carbon dioxide to oxygen and reduces stormwater runoff. Green roofs can also include cool roofs (reflective roofs). Overall, green roofs offer a wide range of social, economic, and environmental benefits compared to typical commercial roof tops.

The drainage off a green roof surface is a particularly important component to maintain optimum growing conditions in the growth medium, to managing heavy rainfall without sustaining damage to growth media due to erosion or ponding of water, and to ensure the sound engineering and structural integrity of the roof.
