Like vertical cooling fins, conventional concrete and steel rooftop penetrations that support parapets, solar equipment and HVAC systems, rapidly conduct heat from warm interior structures through thick rooftop insulation into the cold exterior environment. In addition to wasting heat, cold penetrations can quickly form condensation and mold in today's air-tight, higher-humidity interiors, exposing developers to significant remediation and personal injury liability.
