Soft-covered roofs
Soft-covered roofs, e.g. straw, reed or thatched roofs, are particularly at
risk of fire and require increased protection against lightning strikes. Here,
the isCon
®
system, e.g. with internal conductor (type isFang IN), can be
included discreetly in the building's appearance as an air-termination sys-
tem. The grey variant of the isCon
®
conductor guarantees a high degree
of protection and can be routed safely under the soft roof.
Consult the roofer, in order to have a waterproof penetration of the insu-
lated air-termination rod created. Fasten the insulated air-termination rod
to the roof structure using suitable supports (type isFang TW..).
