Roof artificial turf is a common decorative material that can add greenery to a roof. In order to prolong the life of rooftop artificial turf, we need to pay attention to some important things. Here are some key usage considerations to ensure the long-term use of rooftop artificial turf.
1. Safety precautions
When installing rooftop artificial turf, safety is the primary consideration. Ensure that the installer has the relevant skills and experience to ensure the safety of the roof artificial turf. In addition, to prevent slips or other unexpected events, it is recommended to add non-slip material to the surface of the lawn, especially in wet weather conditions.
2. Lawn fixation and waterproofing
When installing rooftop artificial turf, it is essential to ensure that the lawn is securely fixed to the roof surface. Use professional fixtures and methods, such as ground nails, glue or other fixtures, to ensure that the lawn does not move or loosen due to wind or other natural elements. In addition, make sure that the roof itself has good waterproofing properties to prevent rainwater from seeping into the underlayers of the roof, causing damage to the lawn or mold.
3. Daily maintenance and cleaning of the lawn
Regular routine maintenance and cleaning are essential to extend the life of your rooftop artificial turf. Clean up fallen leaves, weeds and other debris regularly to avoid rot or damage caused by these materials accumulating on the surface of the lawn. Also, regularly rinse the surface of your lawn with water to remove dust, dirt, and other contaminants and keep your lawn clean.
Fourth, lawn fire and sun protection measures
Although artificial turf is flame retardant, roofs are susceptible to sunlight and high temperatures, requiring appropriate fire and sun protection measures. Sunscreen can be sprayed on the surface of the lawn to reduce damage from the sun. Also, make sure there are no flammable materials near the roof to prevent fires.
In short, through the above precautions, we can effectively extend the service life of roof artificial turf and keep it beautiful, practical and safe. Hopefully, these suggestions will help you better use and maintain your rooftop artificial turf.
