Insulated pitched tile roofing system and method of installing same
View Patent ↗The present invention is an insulated pitched roofing system for a sloped deck in which an insulating sheet is adhered to the sloped deck or to a roofing substrate and the roof tiles are adhered to the insulating sheet with a polymer adhesive. The polymer adhesive is preferably a froth liquid polyurethane foam.
1. An insulated pitched roofing system for insulating a pitched roof deck and attaching overlapping tile roof components thereto, the system comprising:
a plurality of insulation boards of unitary construction, each said insulation board adhered and bonded to the pitched roof deck, each said insulation board having a planer upper surface and each said insulation board placed in abutting contact with an adjacent said insulation board to form a continuous, uniform insulative layer;
a polymer adhesive adhering said plurality of insulation boards to the pitched roof deck and
said polymer adhesive adhering the overlapping tile roof components to said plurality of insulation boards.
2. The insulated pitched roofing system of claim 1 , wherein said polymer adhesive is a polyurethane.
3. The insulated pitched roofing system of claim 1 , wherein said polymer adhesive is a foamable polymer adhesive.
4. The insulated pitched roofing system of claim 3 , wherein said polymer adhesive is a plural component, liquid polyurethane foam.
5. The insulated pitched roofing system of claim 1 , wherein each said board of said plurality of insulation boards includes a substantially flat lower surface adhered to the pitched roof deck.
6. The insulated pitched roofing system of claim 1 , wherein each said board of said plurality of insulation boards includes a continuous flat upper surface to which the tile roof components are adhered.
7. In a pitched roofing system having a deck, a waterproof membrane attached to the deck, and overlapping profiled tile roof components, the improvement comprising:
an insulative layer between the waterproof membrane and the profiled tile roof components, said insulative layer comprising a plurality of insulation boards arranged in contacting relationship with each other on the waterproof membrane, each said insulation board having a generally flat upper surface and a lower surface,
a polymer adhesive adhering said lower surface of said plurality of insulation boards to the waterproof membrane, and
said polymer adhesive adhering the profiled tile roof components to said upper surface of said plurality of insulation boards.
8. The pitched roofing system of claim 7 , wherein said plurality of insulation boards are made of expanded rigid polystyrene plastic.
9. The pitched roofing system of claim 7 , wherein said insulative layer has a continuous planer upper surface.
10. The pitched roofing system of claim 9 , wherein said polymer adhesive is an expanding polyurethane foam.
11. An energy efficient, waterproof, pitched roofing system for installation on a roof deck attached to a plurality of pitched truss rafters, the system comprising:
a waterproof substrate attached to the roof deck;
a plurality of insulation boards arranged in contacting relationship with one another and adhesively bonded to said waterproof substrate with a polymer adhesive; and
a plurality of profiled tile roof components adhesively bonded to said plurality of insulation boards with said polymer adhesive,
said polymer adhesive being an expanding foam adhesive.
12. The pitched roofing system of claim 11 , wherein said arranged plurality of insulation boards comprise a substantially continuous planer lower surface bonded to said waterproof substrate and a substantially continuous planer upper surface.
