ACO Blue Roof Flow Restrictor

ACO BLUE ROOF FLOW RESTRICTOR

The ACO Blue Roof Flow Restrictor is a roofing outlet that controls the rate of rainwater run-off from a blue or green roof. The design of each restrictor is tailored to meet project-specific requirements and for use with the ACO range of roof outlets and accessories.

ACO’s in-house design team will calculate the size of restrictor required and provide technical advice and guidance throughout the life of your project.

Outlet Restrictor Features

ONE

Manufactured from from corrosion-resistant 304 grade stainless

TWO

Built-in overflow with vertical orifice option – provides a failsafe drainage solution

THREE

The orifice height can be positioned so water can be retained on the roof for passive irrigation of a green roof.

FOUR

Larger single orifice is less prone to blockages – applies to vertical and horizontal orifices if the system is designed using attenuation principles

FIVE

Wide flange allows a secondary liner (if needed) to be dressed and sealed around the outlet without disturbing the roofing membrane seal.

SIX

The position of the orifice ensures that the roof membrane clamp ring seal is not subjected to prolonged periods of hydrostatic pressure when surcharged.

SEVEN

Coded solid cover (with vent) ensures the restrictor position is easily identified and prevents debris from entering and potentially blocking the outlet.

Features

  • Manufactured from corrosion resistant 304 grade stainless
  • Built-in overflow with orifice control provides failsafe drainage solution
  • Orifice height can be positioned so water can be retained on the roof for passive irrigation.

Benefits

  • Larger single orifice is less prone to blockages
  • Wide flange allows secondary liner (if required)
  • Orifice position ensures the roof clamping seal is not subjected to prolonged periods of hydrostatic pressure
  • Coded solid cover with vent for easy restrictor position identification
  • Debris prevented from entering and blocking the outlet by coded solid cover

Recommended Applications

  • Active and passive blue roof applications
  • Green / 'living' roofs
  • Blue/green roof applications with or without passive irrigation systems
  • Roofing systems that form part of a podium deck or green roof system
