P. M. flow rate when the overflow drain is elevated by 2”. This flow rate does not even meet the 1/8” slope requirement of 231 G. P. M. An overflow height of 3. 2” is required if this drain is used on a 1/8” slope rating. Greater height is required for higher flow ratings.

Is It Safe? • An overflow drain that runs all the time is nothing

Is It Safe? • An overflow drain that runs all the time is nothing more than another primary drain. Which leaves you with no overflow protection. • A properly designed and built drainage system will work, an improperly built system may not.

Froet Primary drains Ø Are built to the same standard – exceeding requirements as our 100 C Bi-functional drains Ø The primary drain is designed to intergrade into any roofing system or design Ø So, when your project has a gravel stop perimeter or thru wall scupper for overflow protection, the Froet primary is the correct answer for your project

Green Roof? • We feel that the green roof box is the only safe

Green Roof? • We feel that the green roof box is the only safe means of installing a roof drain into a green roof. • It can be a 10, 000% increase in free area using a green roof box over a drain with the perforated S/S applied directly to the drain. • Perforated S/S requires 3 times the strainer free area to flow the same GPM.
