Rooftop Technology Alerts You When Drains are Clogged

By Ashley Cooper, Tremco. 

Tremco is a leader in the industry, so it is no surprise they are bringing another new technology to our rooftops.

We live in a world that is virtual, we shop, bank, and even monitor our homes from our mobile devices. So why not use technology to monitor if rooftop drains are functioning properly?

Tremco’s unique and exclusive Knovi Monitoring Technology℠ features SmartDrain™ rooftop sensors that can help you prevent a possible disaster due to drains not functioning properly.  Water can be devastating to your roof or building. Clogged roof drains can be disastrous; the enormous weight of trapped water can lead to catastrophic damage.

When you install SmartDrain™ sensors on your roof drains, you can now know the moment water levels rise. The technology uses a SmartGateway to monitor the status of the drains 24/7 and sends an alert to your mobile device or PC to let you know that there is an issue.   As Benjamin Franklin would say, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

What is even better is this unique technology is easily installed through our KNOVI exclusive installation app. Our step-by-step installation guide allows for seamless deployment with a few swipes and, of course, a few tools too.

Building owners who choose the Knovi Monitoring Technology for their rooftops, enjoy cost savings on service calls because the technology pinpoints the problem area.

With the ability to remotely know what is happening on your roof and to be alerted before potential crippling damage occurs, why wouldn’t you use this technology?
