The Importance of a Roof Drain on a Flat Roof

If one inch of rainwater collects on a rooftop that is twenty feet by twenty feet, can you guess how heavy that is?

One ton.

Most roofs, flat or sloped, aren't built to support a significant amount of extra weight over an extended period of time. That's why it's important to have a roof drain installed on your flat roof.

A roof drain allows water to flow from a flat rooftop down through the interior of the building and, eventually, to the ground. If you hire an inexperienced roofer for the job, you run the risk of damaging the interior of your building if the pipes are not installed correctly and a leak occurs.
