Winter Roofing and Powerblanket Bulk Material Warmer Hot Boxes
Almost all types of roofing material utilize adhesive that requires warm temperatures during the installation process. These adhesives require warm temperatures (heat source) to properly cure and fasten. Without proper fastening, a roof will often fail quickly, if not immediately. In the summer, the sun’s heat will properly adhere most roofing materials: asphalt shingle, EPDM (rubber) single-ply membrane, roll roofing, peel and stick roofing, and modified bitumen. Added effort and expense are required to apply these materials in cold winter weather.
While winter roofing is not ideal, Powerblanket makes it much easier than it has been in the past. Powerblanket has a solution for your winter roofing & construction needs. The Powerblanket Bulk Material Warmer - Hot Box will maintain the desired temperature of your shingles and/or adhesive on site, making the winter install much easier.
