General information
Standing seam roofing panels on plywood bonded to polyiso insulation is a roof system with a non-vented warm substrate. The plywood allows for a traditional support to be used. The plywood must be bonded to the polyiso insulation in controlled factory conditions.
A warm roof is a non-ventilated substrate that reduces thermal bridges and increases air tightness within the buildup.

Installation
See all our installation videosDescription
It is critical that the plywood bonded to polyiso insulation be installed dry and then must be protected against moisture before the zinc is installed.
VMZINC DLSS PLUS should be installed directly over a VM Delta Mat (or VMZINC approved equal drainage mat). This drainage mat will cover the appropriate WBR over the plywood. The recommended plywood thickness is 3/4".
Zinc standing seam panels will have two types of fastening clips: fixed and sliding. The fixed area is about 4'-0" long (5 fixed clips at 12" OC) for each panel. The slope of the roof will determine the location of the fixed area. Sliding clips are typically 18" OC for the remainder of the length of the standing seam panel. Clip spacing tightens at the eave and ridge conditions to assist with wind uplift.
The panels should be installed with the protective film in place. Protective film is recommended to be removed within 60 days post installation.
