Step-by-Step Installation of the TREMguard LLM Fully Bonded System

TREMguard LLM can be installed using different methods, depending on the project requirements and site conditions. In this project (as shown in the video), we used the fully bonded method.

  1. Place the roof membrane carefully to prevent wrinkles or buckles. If any appear, smooth them out before securing the membrane permanently.

 2. Overlap the roof membrane at a minimum of 3 inches (76 mm) at both side and end laps.

 3. Mechanically secure the membrane at the valley using Paraseal Channel Bar and fasteners at 305 mm o.c. spacing.

 4. When using TREMguard LLM Bonding Adhesives, unroll the membrane and fold it back in the long dimension to expose the underside for adhesion. Avoid creasing.

 5. For best results, use a 3/8-inch (9.5 mm) solvent-resistant nap roller to apply the adhesive evenly. Be sure not to leave excess adhesive in one area to ensure uniform drying.

 6. Coverage will vary depending on the porosity of the substrate surface. In this project, we applied it at 1.23 m² per liter.

 7. Allow the adhesive to dry until it becomes tacky before bonding the membrane to the surface.

 8. Press the membrane firmly onto the substrate and apply pressure using a roller to ensure complete adhesion while avoiding trapped air.

 9. Heat-weld all TREMguard LLM TPO reinforced membrane seams, following the recommended welding guidelines.

 10. For roof edge termination, use TREMguard TPO Coated Metal Sheets and fasteners at 305 mm o.c. spacing.
