Installation Guide
The use of a proper underlayment is vital to the performance of any roofing system. Forma Steel strongly recommends the use of a peel and stick membrane for any slopes lower than 3/12. Since every project is different, care and attention should be paid to the product that is being specified so that the building performs as designed.
Venting, breathability and water resistance are all components of a building envelope and should be confirmed with building designers for optimal performance.
