Roof Monitor™ is a technology-based system designed to monitor live loads of water and snow on the roofs of low-sloped buildings to inform businesses of potential risk.More than 3,000 roof collapses occur in the United States every year (Paramount Disaster Recovery Survey, 2010). These collapses endanger lives and cost businesses millions in building repairs, damaged inventory and lost business during closures. Although roof clearings can prevent roof collapses, they can be just as dangerous and costly. Workers clearing roofs face a variety of hazards, including hidden skylights and slippery surfaces. Clearing snow and water can damage the membrane of the roof, resulting in a patched roof with a shorter lifespan. Additionally, forced shut downs during clearings can result in lost business. Roof Monitor™ takes the guesswork out of knowing when to take action by providing objective metrics with actual load measurements, a single point of technology for real-time monitoring of live load conditions, and alerts with protocols defined by the end user. The Roof Monitor™ system is designed for low-sloped roofs on which water and snow can easily accumulate. These types of roofs are common in commercial buildings, such as large retail facilities and warehouses. While retail businesses face the threat of damage to or loss of inventory, which can be very costly, the same safety risks and threats of business disruptions occur in almost every industry – including government and education.After nearly a decade of research and development, multiple prototypes and various phases of product testing, Roof Monitor™ was officially introduced in March of 2014, revolutionizing the roofing industry forever.
