What is the Safe Roof System?

The Roof Monitoring and Alarm System
Safe Roof Systems are Factory Mutual-approved devices that guard against catastrophic roof failure. Designed as an early warning system, Safe Roof Systems continuously monitor loads on flat or low-sloped roofs. If the load exceeds a predetermined limit, typically 70 to 75 percent of the roof trusses' capacity, the Safe Roof System sends an alarm so that corrective action can be taken - before a crisis develops, pinpointing exactly where the attention is needed.

Safe Roof Systems do something more - something fire alarms, sprinkler systems, smoke detectors, and other life safety devices can't do: these systems save you money! We help building managers reduce or avoid costs associated with snow, water, and ice removal - common expenditures for flat-roofed buildings. In fact, under severe winter conditions, a Safe Roof System pays for itself in less than one season. Then, it continues to serve as a cost-avoidance, cost-reduction tool for the life of the building.
