What is the recommended installation for a metal roof deck? This metal deck is a Type II Constructions, no insulation.
Please refer to the Roof Tile Institute Installation Manual for Moderate Climate Regions (page 61, September 2002 version) for a detailed description of proper installation procedures on metal roof decks. This manual can be found under the Technical Information section of the MonierLifetile website. What underlayment and installation methods are recommended for concrete tile roofs? I have roofing contractors arguing over whether or not I should use coolply or similar foiled sheathing under your Duralite Split Shake tile. One says tile manufactures recommend against it because their tile bakes from underneath. What is the official MonierLifetile position? Our parent company has done extensive testing on the use of radiant barriers and has many years experience with concrete tiles being used with radiant barrier underlayments and have no reports of any problems associated with this practice.
