Overview of Roof Drain Systems

Roof drains supplied by Kenz Sarab Machinery & Equipment Co. are engineered solutions designed to ensure efficient rainwater removal from flat and low-slope roofs across residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings in Saudi Arabia. Proper roof drainage is a critical element of building performance, protecting structures from water ponding, leakage, corrosion, and long-term structural damage.

Kenz Sarab delivers reliable, durable, and standards-compliant roof drainage systems that support modern construction requirements and harsh climatic conditions.

Importance of Proper Roof Drainage

Inadequate roof drainage can lead to serious building failures, including:

  • Water ponding and excessive roof loading
  • Leakage into occupied spaces
  • Damage to waterproofing membranes
  • Structural corrosion and concrete deterioration
  • Increased maintenance and lifecycle costs

Engineered roof drain systems are essential to maintain building integrity, occupant safety, and long-term asset value.

Engineering Design of Roof Drains

Roof drains supplied by Kenz Sarab are engineered to handle peak rainfall intensities, ensuring rapid and controlled removal of rainwater from roof surfaces. Each drain is selected based on:

  • Roof area and geometry
  • Rainfall intensity calculations
  • Drainage layout and downpipe connections
  • Waterproofing system compatibility

This engineering-driven approach ensures roof drainage systems perform reliably even during extreme weather events.

Types of Roof Drains

Kenz Sarab supplies a range of roof drain configurations suitable for different building requirements:

  • Primary roof drains for main rainwater discharge
  • Secondary (overflow) roof drains for emergency protection
  • Vertical outlet roof drains
  • Horizontal outlet roof drains

These options allow proper drainage design in compliance with building codes and consultant specifications.
