Description

Niitty, a kindergarten in the city of Helsinki, was coated with ElaProof S according to the manufacturer’s instructions twice. This ensured a minimum dry film thickness of 0.6 mm in terms of waterproofing.

Information

In connection with the coating work, the holes caused by removing the old snow barriers were patched with ElaProof H and Base fabric. In addition, the vertical seams of the long miters were treated in the same way. The ventilation of the roof was improved with vacuum fans hand-made by a sheet metal worker. After the coating work new snow barriers, roof bridges and ladders were installed.
