| Rooftop Pipe Support is cost effective, lightweight and easy to use  The new Rooftop Pipe Support from CADDY® is a cost-effective alternative to wood blocks, straps, clips and other labor-intensive methods for supporting pipes and conduit on roofs. This UV-rated “sled-design” support for completing low-pipe-count runs has an extremely small footprint of 4-in. by 5-in. The sled design distributes the load evenly and protects the roof membrane. The support can either be bonded to the roof or float with pipe expansion and contraction. It holds up to three ½-in. or two ¾-in or 1-in. pipes or conduit. The CADDY Rooftop Pipe Support has an integral pipe-retaining mechanism that ratchets down to hold pipes securely or can be set for loose guiding to accommodate for thermal changes. The support weighs less than 1/3 of a pound, making them easier to carry up a ladder than some competing methods of rooftop pipe support.Installation is easy. Remove the retaining mechanism from the support and set the Rooftop Pipe Support in place. Lay the pipes on top of the support and snap the retaining mechanism back in place to hold the pipes or conduit securely. It’s that simple. No tools or fasteners are necessary. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Construction News :: home page |
