Drain rainwater and meltwater through internal gutters! It is possible to reduce the heat dissipation rate to about one-third per hour.
Our company offers "Roof Snow Melting (Metal Roofing / M-Type Roof)." The structure, which features a parapet around the roof perimeter and an internal gutter at the center of the roof to drain rainwater and melted snow through the internal gutter, is referred to as an "M-Type Roof." Compared to conventional sloped roofs, it does not create icicles or snow buildup at the eaves, allowing for more flexible time constraints and reducing the heat dissipation rate to about one-third. While it is highly energy-efficient, this method is difficult to adopt unless implemented during new construction, as it imposes constraints on the building's structure. [Features] ■ Parapets are installed around the roof perimeter, and an internal gutter is placed at the center of the roof. ■ Snow moves from both sides of the peak towards the valley's internal gutter while being heated on the roof surface. ■ Unlike conventional sloped roofs, it does not create icicles or snow buildup at the eaves. ■ Time constraints are more flexible. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
