With lightweight material our blower truck is capable of placing soil upwards of 10 stories high. This eliminates the need for large traffic closures both machinery and men on the ground, and on the roof. We can install soil and stone ballast such as HPB or ¼ clear chip without a large scale setup to hoist the material.
Green Roofs
A typical Blower Truck roof installation involves:
- 2-3 workers
- 1 Blower truck (slightly larger than a delivery truck)
Traditional methods of installing material on roof decks require:
- Crane
- Machine loading material on the ground
- 2-4 flaggers
- 1 spotter
- 3-4 workers spreading material on roof
- Lane closure (downtown typically has 9am to 3pm closure restrictions)
It’s easy to see the benefits of using a pneumatic blower truck to place materials on a roof. Our installation also spreads at specified depths, so it’s sure to be on grade every time!
