Dow Viento™ PVC is a premium PVC membrane based on DuPont Elvaloy® ketone ethylene ester. Elvaloy is a high molecular weight, non-migrating polymer that helps Dow Viento™ PVC maintain its flexibility, appearance and color after installation and exposure to the elements. Dow Viento™ PVC is ideally suited for new and re-roofing applications. The membrane comes in standard thickness of 45-, 60- and 80-mil (1.14-, 1.52-, 2-mm). Dow Viento™ PVC is packaged in standard rolls that are 76.5-in. wide X 100-feet long.

Dow GardenTop™ System

GardenTop™ The Dow GardenTop™ System combines superior roofing membrane, insulation components and water management technology to deliver maximum performance, design flexibility and installation efficiency.

There are two Dow GardenTop™ System options: intensive and extensive. The difference between the two is the depth of growing medium contained in the system. An intensive system, or “deep” system, has soil depth greater than six inches. The extensive system uses less growing medium, between two and six inches, to support its plant life.

Intensive System
The intensive system places the waterproofing membrane directly over a high load capacity roof deck and the remaining system components, such as the insulation and drainage system, between it and the growing medium. High density, closed cell insulation is used. A Dow GardenTop™ Drain multi- component drainage system facilitates the vertical and horizontal flow of water through the roof assembly to the roof drains and provides air movement across the membrane surface.

Extensive System
An adhered roof assembly is the basis of the extensive system. High density DensDeck® Prime Roof Board provides a durable substrate for the membrane. Dow GardenTop™ Drain is placed on the membrane to provide: a high volume exit for water, reservoirs for water retention and an EPA certified fabric that protects against root intrusion. The shallow growing medium and plantings complete the extensive system.

CSPE Roofing Membrane

Dow Roofing Systems CSPE Roofing Membrane<BR><BR>
click to enlarge
Dow Cimarca™ CSPE is a reinforced, heat-weldable, membrane based on DuPont-Dow Hypalon, chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSPE) synthetic rubber.

In its initial installed form, Dow Cimarca™ CSPE is thermoplastic in nature, which allows it to be hot-air welded. After installation and exposure to the elements, Dow Cimarca™ CSPE cures into a crossed linked rubber. Once cured to its ultimate strength, Dow Cimarca™ CSPE shows little change in extensibility and tensile strength.

Intended for use on mechanically attached, fully adhered, certain vented roof systems (VRS), the Dow Total Roofing System, and some ballasted roof installations, pre-engineered Dow Edge Metal Systems meet FM approvals for wind-uplift and have been designed to offer protection against roof-edge damage due to high winds. Each carries a warranty equal to the term of the Dow Roofing System warranty. All Dow Edge Metal Systems may be used in conjunction with any Dow membrane.

Dow Edge

The Dow Edge System is our most popular fascia system and consists of a heavy formed 1/4 hard aluminum anchor rail and a snap-on fascia cover. The membrane is fastened and held in place over the edge of the roof by the anchor rail. The snap-on cover floats freely to allow for thermal expansion and contraction. Corrosion resistant 1 5/8-in. fasteners with neoprene gaskets ensure a water-tight fit.

Dow Fascia

The Dow Cap is a snap-on parapet wall cap designed for attachment to either treated wood nailers or directly over masonry or concrete walls. This system is custom fabricated to meet exact job requirements and includes a unique, stainless steel spring compression cleat system that ensures positive attachment. In addition, the system includes 8-in. (20.3-cm) wide concealed splice plates with dual non-curing sealant strips for watertight installation.

Dow System 200

Dow System 200 is a “formed” two-piece fascia system for use with ballasted roofing applications. A unique design securely positions fascia panels and eliminates splice plate migration, while allowing full expansion/contraction of the fascia material. No exposed fasteners, no unsightly cover plates, and ease of installation highlight this roof edge system.

Dow Vented Roof System

The Dow Vented Roof System (VRS) combines a reliable, time proven Dow Tiempo™+ TPO or Dow CSPE roofing membrane with an air-sealed assembly and release vent technology. This creates a system that neutralized the power of the wind and keeps the membrane tightly secured to a monolithic deck or air barrier over steel or wood. All without the need for added cost of fasteners, stone ballast, pavers or adhesives in the field of the roof.

Energy Efficient Green Roofing

Energy Efficient Green Roofing

Dow Roofing Systems recognizes the benefits in Energy Star® certified roofs to both the building owner and environment.

Since reflective Energy Star-labeled roof products can reduce the amount of air conditioning needed to cool buildings, the EPA asserts energy bills can be reduced by up to 50%. Reflective roofs can also reduce peak cooling demand by 10% to 15%, enabling building owners to buy smaller, less expensive HVAC systems, say EPA representatives.
