Replacing rooftop equipment, such as HVAC units, must be done carefully under close supervision to prevent damaging the newly installed roof, according to an article from Facility Maintenance Decisions on the FacilitiesNet website.
Maintenance and engineering managers who decide to remove and replace the existing roof face a daunting series of challenges. They must replace a complex system efficiently, deliver a finished project that provides long-term benefits, and, perhaps most importantly, do it all cost-effectively.
To make the business case for investing in such projects, managers need to address a series of key issues during planning, including selecting the most appropriate roof system, addressing common problems that can occur during the installation of a new roof, and ensuring effective post-installation roof inspection and maintenance.
Managers who give in to the temptation to replace a roof with the same system might overlook a beneficial opportunity. Roofing system manufacturers are continuously improving their products’ materials and designs, so it pays to do some research to see if new-generation systems offer improvements that fit a particular project.
