Insulated panel roofing may be just what you need if you require a fire-resistant, sound-reducing, and waterproof solution that can withstand all weather conditions while matching your property’s style. Also known as sandwich panel roofing, it’s a revolutionary solution that combines insulation, ceiling, and a roof in one convenient structure, making it thermally efficient and weather-tight. Those characteristics make them ideal for Australian buildings as they can withstand the harshest weather conditions while ensuring high insulation R values to resist heat flow.
How long do insulated roof panels last?
As you look into the technology behind insulated polycarbonate roof panels, you may be wondering if they are a worthy investment that can last for years. The last thing you want is a non-durable roof that needs replacing every few years. However, with insulated roof panels, you can expect them to last for at least 20 years. With proper installation, care, and high-quality materials, their lifespan could even exceed that.
Certain factors will help prolong the lifespan of your insulated roof panels:
- Quality and material – Quality is crucial when ensuring long-lasting insulated polycarbonate roof panels. Ensure they are made of materials that possess special properties. For instance, they can come with non-combustible steel to make it safer for structures in areas prone to wildfire, as the material prevents fire from spreading.
- Diligent maintenance – Cleaning, maintaining and inspecting the roof at least once a year can help lengthen its lifespan.
- Load carrying capacity – Consider the load-carrying capacities required for the insulated panel roofingbased on the design, the load it will carry, the environmental conditions, and the technical specification of the product components.
- Customisation – High-quality insulated panel roofing that is designed, built, and installed according to the exact roofing and aesthetic requirements of the application tends to last longer. Choose a supplier that can deliver solutions in various designs, finishes, colours, and custom modular widths, enabling design flexibility that allows you to design your roof to match your property’s architecture and facade.
If you find that insulated panels are too expensive, you can explore other custom shade solutions available such as standard metal roofs, outdoor awnings, commercial awnings, heavy duty-sails and others. Be sure to work with a supplier that offers top-quality shade solutions for commercial, industrial, and residential purposes in Brisbane and all across Australia and New Zealand.
