A roofing system including a first underlayment layer and the ice backing flashing layer adjacent to and above the first underlayment layer. The roof system optionally including at least one of a second underlayment layer adjacent to and above the upper portion of the ice backing flashing layer, a drip edge layer adjacent to and above the second underlayment layer, or a third underlayment layer adjacent to and above the drip edge.

INTELLIGENT ROOF DRAIN SYSTEMS AND METHODS
20230272620 · 2023-08-31 · ·

An intelligent roof drain system includes a roof drain surrounded by a drain plate. A water seepage detection module is disposed proximate the drain plate. The water seepage detection module includes water seepage detection sensors and circuitry and an antenna system to inductively receive power and communicate water seepage data. A roofing membrane is disposed over the water seepage detection module. A monitoring module that includes control circuitry, power supply circuitry, water level detection circuitry, communications interface circuitry, and an antenna system to inductively supply power to and communicate with the water seepage detection module is disposed proximate the water seepage detection module such that the antenna systems align. The intelligent roof drain system can detect water seepage under the roofing membrane and standing water proximate the roof drain and communicate such events to a gateway and/or building management system.

ROOF DRAIN

A roof drain including a flange defining an opening having a central axis, and a throat extending axially from the flange to define a channel having an inner surface therethrough. Where the throat includes a first end generally corresponding with the flange, and a second end opposite the first end, and where the second end is configured to be coupled to a drain outlet. The inner surface of the channel includes a cross-sectional shape taken normal to the central axis, and where the cross-sectional shape continuously and smoothly decreases or remains the same from the first end to the second end.

DRAIN COVER ASSEMBLY
20220025653 · 2022-01-27 ·

A drain cover assembly. The cover may be used with roof drains or other drains and allow for fluid collection into the drain even with buildup of debris around or on the cover. The cover may have a lower flange or portion with a large area and extending outwardly in an arcuate configuration and having openings for fluid flow. The lower portion may be oriented at a small angle with respect to the horizontal. An upper portion may be connected to the lower portion and may be more vertically-oriented than the lower portion and also extend arcuately and having openings. Locking assemblies may be adjustable to secure the cover to a clamping collar over a drain. The locking assembly may include a base that slidingly engages the collar, and a housing that is secured over the base and to secure the cover to the collar.
