DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0065] Although the accompanying figures provide an exemplary embodiment, the present invention is not limited to the specific shapes and configurations presented.

[0066] As demonstrated in FIG. 1, system 10 is constructed and arrange to pay positioned upon a roof. The system includes a main housing body 12 incorporating various features within a single main housing body. The system is contemplated as including any one or combination of the components presented herein. Main housing body 12 includes an anemometer 14 infrared detector 16 camera 18 and flash detector 20. Further incorporated into main housing body 12 is a first component housing 22 and a second component Housing 24. Each of first component housing 22 and second component housing 24 are constructed in the range to hold a plurality of sensors and monitors including carbon monoxide detector, sulfur dioxide monitor, hydrogen sulfide monitor and an audio speaker. The upper surface of main housing body 12 further includes an extended component housing 30. Component housing 30 is constructed and arranged to include communications, computer components, GPS components, light beacon, Siren, microphone, speaker, or combinations thereof.

[0067] In one embodiment, system 10 includes a video touchscreen 60.

[0068] In one embodiment, system 10 includes a manual emergency button 62. This is operatively associated with communications systems and can immediately alert any one or combination of fire rescue, ambulance, a designated emergency contact person, or any other persons or entity that one would contact in the event of an emergency.

[0069] In one embodiment, as demonstrated in FIG. 2 support legs 42 have support feet 44 and are stabilized and secured utilizing counterweights 46.

[0070] As demonstrated in FIG. 2, system 10 is secured to an existing air conditioner compressor using mounting plate 40.

[0071] In another environment, as demonstrated in FIG. 3, an existing roof top pipe 50 has securing bracket 52 to affixed thereto where system 10 is held in place by securing bracket 52.

[0072] The system of the present invention for the contemplates main body 10 configured with communications component providing for wireless communication and external monitoring of a roof upon which main body 10 is placed.

[0073] While the invention has been described in its preferred form or embodiment with some degree of particularity, it is understood that this description has been given only by way of example and that numerous changes in the details of construction, fabrication, and use, including the combination and arrangement of parts, may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
