Irrigation Boxes as Conduits |
|
"If water supply is achieved by a build up of
water in the drainage layer, inspection boxes must be used to
protect the roof run-off with a built-in accumulation
regulator"* FLL The following inspection Boxes
can be equipped with automatic irrigation systems:
KSE Extensive Inspection Boxes
KSE Intensive Inspection Boxes
TGS Subterranean Garage Boxes
The boxes must be at least 30 cm high

Setting The
Water-Level
|
DFine adjustment
of the correct water level is achieved by twisting the
polystyrene float. |

The angle valve
supplied includes a filter to separate dirt from the fresh
water. We recommend that during inspections, the filter be
removed with a screwdriver and cleaned. |

Automatic Irrigation
Systems
Intensive roof planting projects often have
a water supply built-in. For this type of construction, APP
offers an eco-inspection-box with servo-controlled mechanical
water level regulation. A polystyrene float permits the
desired amount of water to be maintained on the roof. When the
angle-valve is closed, the flow of water directly to the shaft
is interrupted.
Any drainage pipe connections are secured with pre-cut
drainage openings. Water pipe connection: 1-inch pipe or hose,
fitted either inside or outside the box.
An APP automatic irrigation system can water roof gardens of
up to approx. 400 m2 (20x20 m). For larger areas, several
systems should be used.

|
The irrigation box needs to be installed
either over the run-off or, preferably, directly on the
surface of the roof. Water pipes are fixed to the automatic
system, either inside or outside the shaft, as desired. Care
must be taken during installation that nothing impedes the
movement of the polystyrene float.
