7、. (SMACNA). The purpose of these Guidelines which cover curb and roof penetrations and sealings is to set forth good construction practices. The Guidelines are just thatguidelinesand are not standards, warranties or certifications. The information contained in these Guidelines should serve as a supp

8、lement to the unit manufacturers specific installation instructions. The precise steps to be taken with respect to a specific curb, roof penetration or sealing may vary according to particular circumstances, job con-ditions and manufacturers specifications. In all cases, the necessary installation w

9、ork should be done by and under the supervision of skilled and qualified personnel. These Guidelines cover instructions on the interface between the roof and the location at which the unit, pip-ing, electrical wiring or sheet metal ductwork pass through the roof. For more detailed design information

10、, see the SMACNA Architectural Sheet Metal Manual, HVAC Duct Construction Standards, and the National Electrical Code. These documents were the source for many of the recommendations made in these Guidelines. No changes in these AHRI - SMACNA Guidelines shall be made without the approval of AHRI and

11、 SMACNA. 2 Section A Curb Criteria for Roof Mounted Equipment 1. The top of the curb should be level after installation. 2. The curb and the equipment should be structurally capable of supporting intended loads and should be so designed that no penetration for drains, power lines, etc., will occur t

12、hrough the roof flashing. 3. The curb should be furnished with a wood nailer which provides a minimum of 3- inches of nailing surface, mounted at the top of the curb, to permit mechanical attachment of the flashing material. 4. Caution should be used when considering the use of wood that has been tr

13、eated with an oil borne preser-vative for wood nailers. The oil that is used in many lumber treatments can act as a solvent on roofing materials and can cause bitumen drippage. When wood nailers constructed of wood that has been treated with an oil borne preservative are used, a barrier of rosin-siz

14、ed sheathing paper or similar material should be placed between the built-up roof membrane and the nailer. 5. The curb should provide a minimum clearance of 10 inches between the top of the finished roof surface and the top of the wood nailer, continuous around the curb perimeter. In no case should

15、the curb be less than 14 inches in height. (See Figure 6.) 6. If the curb does not include a counterflashing receiver, a separate counterflashing receiver should be installed prior to the installation of the equipment. All receivers should be of watertight construction. 7. The metal counterflashing

16、may extend down over the base flashing so that no composition material is exposed, thereby reducing the danger to foot abuse. (See Figure 6.) 3 Section B Stand Mounting Criteria Some mechanical equipment installations require that roofing materials be installed or maintained beneath them. Table 1 pr

17、esents guidelines for the clearances nec-essary to accomplish this purpose. Units which allow access from the sides may permit reduction of these val-ues. Typical methods for flashing of unit supports are shown in Figures 1 through 5. Table 1 WORKING CLEARANCES Width of Height Above Equipment Roof S

19、allation 1. WHEN UNITS ARE HANDLED, THE UNIT MANU-FACTURERS INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE CARE-FULLY FOLLOWED. Units should not be moved over a roof membrane but should in some manner be lifted from the ground onto the curb or support framework. 2. Seal (to curbing): When setting the unit onto the curb, the

20、installer should ensure that a sealing material is positioned between the unit and curb to provide a continuous watertight connection. (See Figure 6.) 3. The base of curb mounted units should extend beyond the curb. (See Figure 6.) 4. Installation should be in accordance with local code requirements

21、. 5. Installation should provide for minimum blockage of snow. 6. Equipment mounting should be of heavy masonry or equivalent construction, or an auxiliary mounting platform shall be provided, to minimize vibration effects (see Paragraph 4.1.2 of AHRI Standard 270-95)“ (formerly ARI Standard 270-95)

22、 Sound Rating of Outdoor Unitary Equipment.“ 10 Figure 6 Curb Detail For Rooftop Air Handling Units 11 Section D External Connections Section D-1 Exterior Duct Closures and Connection to Equipment 1. All ducts that are not watertight through the use of welded construction or protective shields and a

23、re exposed directly to weather and solar radiation should have secure watertight mechanical connec-tions and receive exterior duct sealant treatment as defined in paragraph 2. 2. Exterior duct sealant treatment should consist of the supplemental application of a product or products marketed specific

24、ally as forming a positive air and watertight seal, bonding well to the metal involved, remaining watertight with metal movement and hav-ing a suitable service temperature range. If exposed to direct sunlight, it should also be ultraviolet ray and ozone resistant or should, after curing, be painted

25、with a compatible coating that provides that resis-tance. The term “sealant“ here is not limited to mate-rials of adhesive or mastic nature but is inclusive of tapes and combinations of woven fabric strips and mastics. Asphalt based compounds are not recom-mended for sealing ductwork. 3. Unless othe

26、rwise prescribed by the equipment man-ufacturer, ducts should be attached to equipment with mechanical fastening supplemented with exterior duct sealant treatment as defined in paragraph 2. Typical connections are shown in Figure 7. The attachment method should accommodate discon-nection if this is

27、required for routine maintenance of the equipment. 12 4. Where vibration isolation material is required at the connection of ducts to equipment, such material should be watertight. 5. Roof penetrations by ducts should utilize counter-flashed curbs. Typical arrangements are shown in Figure 8. 6. All

28、penetrations into ducts should be sealed water-tight. Attachment of supports should use a minimum number of duct penetrations. 7. Duct systems should not be pressurized without suf-ficient time for curing of sealant systems. Follow sealant manufacturers recommendations for applica-tion of the sealan

29、t. 8. Adequate clearances between ducts and roof pene-tration openings should be provided. 9. Ducts should be supported to avoid transfer of duct weight across flexible connections. 10. Horizontal ducts should be pitched and provided with drainage outlets as illustrated (by the system design-er). 11

30、. Ducts should be installed at a height sufficient to install roofing and flashing. (See Table 1.) 13 Figure 7 Rooftop Duct Insulation 14 Figure 8 Duct Penetration of roof 15 Section D-2 Electrical 1. Whenever possible, electrical conduit should be run to the unit inside the roof curb. 2. Electrical

31、 conduit connections made to exposed junction boxes on units should be made on the bot-tom of the box. Installation should comply with local code requirements. The installation should be made watertight. 3. Where an external electrical junction box is not used, watertight fittings should be used at

32、the panel joint. If electrical conduit passes through a hole in the panel, that joint should be made watertight. 4. Where electrical conduit passes through the building roof, the construction shown in Figure 9 should be used. 5. Installation should be in accordance with the NFPA “ National Electrica

33、l Code.“ 16 Section D-3 Piping 1. Whenever possible, piping should be brought down through the unit and inside the roof curb. 2. Piping connections made through the side of units not designed to accommodate water entry should be protected by a sheet metal enclosure whenever pos-sible. Piping should

34、be brought into the bottom of the enclosure. Where a sheet metal enclosure is not used watertight fittings should be used. Installation should comply with local plumbing code requirements. 3. Where piping passes through the building roof, the construction shown in Figure 9 and 10 should be used. 4.

35、Where piping is insulated, insulation should not be installed until after the flashing has been completed. 17 Figure 9 Conduit and Piping Through Roof Deck 18 Figure 10 Clearances For Multiple Pipes -Between Pipes and From Walls And Curbs 19 Section D-4 Drains If recommended by the manufacturer of t

36、he equipment, condensate drain lines should be provided with a “P“ trap according to the manufacturers specifications. If the con-densate line passes through the building roof, the con-struction shown in Figure 9 should be used. Condensate lines should not drain onto the roof. Some means of clean ou

37、t for the “P“ trap should be pro-vided. If “P“ trap is to be glued, a tee should be installed before the “P“ trap. 20 Section E General Instructions Section E-1 Checklist for Equipment Installation and Service 1. Exercise care in removing and replacing panels. 2. Replace all panels. Replace all pane

38、l fasteners and seals. Replace seals as required. 3. Connect all drain lines. 4. Report possible roofing and flashing damage observed during the servicing of equipment. 5. Remove debris. 6. Oil spills will damage the roof and should be imme-diately reported. 7. Servicemen should not place tools, equ

39、ipment and materials on ductwork. Stay off of ducts and units. 8. Walk on walkways if provided. 9. Do not kick or damage cants or flashings. 10. Check unit for airtight fit on curb. 21 Section E-2 Flashings 1. Flashings are subjected to some of the most demanding conditions on the roof. The details

40、included here establish the best known methods of installation for rooftop mounted equipment. 2. Never attach any roof flashing directly to rooftop unit. 3. For details not included in this manual, refer to the latest edition of The SMACNA Architectural Sheet Metal Manual. 4. Pitch pockets (also com

41、monly referred to as pitch pans) are flanged, metal containers placed around columns or other roof penetrations. They are gener-ally filled with asphalt plastic cement or pitch plastic cement and are top-poured with a compatible bitu-men to seal the opening in the roof membrane creat-ed by the penet

42、rating element. Pitch pockets have not been shown in these details because, by the nature of their design, they are NOT continuous-ly watertight and require frequent inspection and maintenance. Though pitch pockets are frequently used as a cost compromise, their use is NOT recom-mended since better methods of sealing roof pene-trations are available.
