Testing
_____________________________________________________________________________________________

Why is roof testing important for solar installations? Simple....you will be covering the majority of your roof with solar equipment. When would be the best time to determine if a problem exists with your roof system that is beyond visual inspection?

Wind uplift testing
Enrecon designed and constructed the first portable fiberglass bell chamber. Our "Super Dome" was displayed at the '1995 Exhibition of Dade County Approved Roofing Products' to demonstrate hurricane resistance testing up to 300 psf.

Fastener pull tests
This testing method calculates code compliant resistance, quantities, and patterns to meet required wind load designs. Lab Analysis and Asbestos Testing also available.

Roof Moisture Surveys
Present day technology allows select roof consulting firms to evaluate and predict, with a reasonable degree of scientific certainty, the condition and projected longevity of existing roof systems. Although maintenance is much less costly than roof replacement, it is more difficult to determine the causes of isolated roof problems. Moisture surveys provide the critical data to determine the origin and solution of problem areas. A.R.T. moisture surveys include scale roof plan, areas of entrapped moisture, maintenance items, photo documentation and comprehensive written report with maintenance budgets. Moisture survey techniques include radioisotopic, infrared, capacitance and electronic.
