• Sprayed Polyurethane Foam (SPF) roof systems have been around since the 1960’s.
• In the 1990’s, the occurrence of hailstorms and resulting hailstorm damage encouraged owners to identify roofing systems that could minimize damage.
• Identified as not very durable
• Cheaper, temporary roofing system

1996 Results
1. There was a very large differential between the hail resistance of silicone, acrylic, and polyurethane coating systems.
2. The Permathane polyurethane coating was the most resistant SPF coating system.
3. Simulated aging tests specified by ASTM and FM had no correlationto the in-field test results of actual aged systems.
4. The Permathane coated roofs (when tested in the field) were the only systems that passed the FM-SH test.
5. There was a large differential between the durability and longevity of the performance of different manufacturers’ products.

• Legislation was passed that dramatically reformed the way K-12 schools are constructed.
• The Board is charged with administration of three capital funds: – Building Renewal
– New School Facilities
– Deficiencies Corrections (adopted rules establishing minimum school facility guidelines, assessing school buildings against these guidelines, and providing monies to bring the buildings up to the guidelines)
• Developed minimum standards for existing and new school facilities

United Airlines• UAL Low-Bid Projects Results:
– Poor quality work
– Unmotivated contractors
– No contractor accountability (finger pointing)
– UAL forced to watch/manage/direct contractors on how to do their work
– Projects needed to be repaired / maintained soon after they were complete

2008 NRCA Bulletin Roofing Warranties
• A roofing warranty's length should not be the primary criterion in the selection of a roofing system because the warranty does not necessarily provide assurance of satisfactory system performance.
• The selection of a roof system application should be based on the product's qualities and suitability for the prospective project.
• A long-term warranty may be of little value if the system does not perform
• Long-term warranties largely are reactive (rather than proactive) solutions to roof problems.
• There is a common misconception that long-term warranties are all-inclusive insurance policies.
71
• Warranty documents often contain restrictive provisions that significantly limit the warrantor's liability and consumer's remedies in the event that problems develop.
• Manufacturers who use long-term warranties as marketing tools have found themselves compelled to meet or exceed warranties of competitors. In some cases, the length of the warranty may have been established without appropriate technical research or documentation of in-field performance.
• Unfortunately, there are a number of manufacturers that issued long-term warranties and no longer are operating, leaving consumers with an ineffective warranty

True or False?
• The majority of warranty’s protect the client or entity buying the product or service?
• The majority of warranty’s minimize risk to the buyer?
• Warranty’s are based on the performance of the product or service?
• The primary purpose of a warranty is to “market” the buyer.

• Do not use technical information when making a decision...always demand performance information.
• Warranty’s are written by the manufacturers of the product to protect the manufacturer.

1. Installer provides a list of 15 past customers that can validate:– High customer satisfaction and long-term performance
– Performance actual product being installed
2. Don’t use warranty period as selection criteria (e.g., 30-years)– INSTEAD, review the exclusions of the warranty and how they impact your building
and your situation.
– Consider giving credit to those Suppliers with fewer exclusions.
