2023 High-bay warehouse: 96 outlets, 8 lines

During the renovation of a high-bay warehouse, those responsible opted for a pressurised flow drainage system. Here, the internal pipes are laid without a gradient, as the water is drained away using negative pressure. Insulation protects against condensation.

With a warehouse, it is often not enough to drain the flat roof safely. For example, it is often necessary to ensure that no condensation forms in the room - to prevent moisture damage to the goods. damage to the goods. B. Braun in Melsungen has now realised an economical solution has now been realised: The horizontal horizontal lines under the ceiling each contain twelve drains together via a single line and drain them in a single downpipe. downpipe. To ensure that the water drains away safely, the system is designed as a rapid drainage system with system with negative pressure. The insulation of the resistant pipes ensures that no condensate no condensate falls out.

2022 Into a single strand

Solingen creates attractive new living space. A technically and aesthetically impressive detail of the complex is the roof drainage with systems that also cascade over stepped storeys with just one drainage line.

"Curious: the trades came from a single source - but not the buyers, of course. As a result, there were ten experts on this construction site alone who checked the drainage concept - and there was not a single complaint."

2022 Home match for flat roof drainage

LORO-X cascade drainage for residential buildings with roof terraces

62 new apartment blocks, solid and modern, with flat roofs and roof terraces, staggered storeys and balconies: Solingen is creating attractive new living space.

A technically and aesthetically convincing detail of the complex is the roof drainage system, which also drains over staggered storeys with just one cascading line. The high-quality steel pipes blend harmoniously into the sophisticated architecture - realised with exemplary craftsmanship by the specialist guild company Gernert Dachtechnik from Waldbröl.

 

2021/22 LORO-X composite pipes defy flow noise and condensate

Technical description

LORO has developed special composite pipes for internal roof drainage. The ‘LORO-X’ composite pipes combine soundproofing and insulation by reducing loud flow noises and preventing condensation on the pipe.

If the roof drainage runs through the interior of a building, the technical demands on the pipe increase. In recreation rooms and and workrooms, loud flow noises must be avoided, as must negative effects caused by temperature differences between the pipe and room air. Loro, a specialist in flat roof drainage, has designed composite pipes for these cases. pipes for these situations. According to Loro, they are particularly suitable sensitive areas such as recreation rooms or server rooms. The double-walled steel pipes have an internal insulation layer up to 28 mm thick insulating layer of PU foam. This structure prevents According to Loro, this structure prevents condensation from forming on the outer wall of the pipe. This would otherwise be a risk, especially in winter, due to the significant temperature differences between the heated room air and the cold water in the pipe. and the cold water in the pipe. Due to the insulation layer the outer wall of the pipe remains at room temperature, which also This also saves heating energy.
