The ridge ventilator on industrial plant's roof is very important for production. The steel roof ridge vent can provide ventilation, daylighting and smoke exhaust functions for the workshops. It is a kind of workshop ventilation equipment currently used in many steel-structured workshops. So in order to avoid the hidden danger of rain leakage in the ridge ventilator, the waterproof performance of the upper end is particularly important.

At present, the waterproof method of the upper end of the ridge ventilator mainly includes traditional silica gel waterproofing and full-structure waterproofing. Of course, the effects of these two waterproofing methods are obviously different. Here is a brief introduction for everyone.

Traditional silicone waterproof method:

Silica gel is a highly active adsorption material, which is an amorphous substance. The main component of silica gel is silica, which is chemically stable and does not burn. Because of its stable chemical properties and a highly active adsorption material, silica gel can effectively prevent rainwater from leaking and play a role in waterproofing when used for adhesion between the gaps of the roof ridge vent, but on the roof, it will be exposed to wind and sun for a long time. , It is easy to age and crack. Poor quality silica gel has aged in 6 months. Good quality silica gel may last for 2-3 years. No silica gel manufacturer can guarantee the useful life of silica gel. Due to the particularity of silicone bonding, once the silicone cracks and leaks, it is often difficult to find the problem, solve the problem, and repeatedly repair the leak, which affects the production and operation.

Full structure waterproof method:

The full-structure waterproofing method is a full-structure waterproof ridge vents independently invented by Mcwell, which eliminates the hidden danger of water leakage in the ridge ventilator and becomes an epoch-making milestone in the natural ventilation industry. The feature of Mcwell's full-structure waterproof technology is: the full-structure waterproof ventilator uses special fasteners to buckle the joints of the plate. The waterproof service life is the same as that of the building roof outer plate. It solves the problem of water leakage caused by the aging of silica gel, which truly meets the owner’s rainproof requirements. The full-structure waterproofing technology has become the technology of the Shunpo gas building and has been widely used and has been unanimously praised by the owners, design institutes and construction units.
