Für Flachdächer mit Folienabdichtung, Bitumen, Kies, Beton, Gründach und Sandwichplatten.

Nein. Das System ist auf reine Ballastierung ausgelegt, d. h. es wird ohne Dachdurchdringung montiert.

Bis zu 5° Dachneigung sind zulässig. Darüber hinaus ist eine Sonderprüfung notwendig bzw. muss des System bauseits verankert werden.

Ja. Je nach Wind- und Schneelast ist eine ausreichende Ballastierung (z.B. mit Betonplatten) erforderlich.

Ja. Die Profiness-Planungshilfe berechnet dir die benötigten Ballastgewichte individuell für dein Dach.

Ja. Die Kiesschicht muss eben und darf max. 3–5 cm tief sein. Kies unter den Auflagen entfernen.

Ja. Sofern die Begrünung niedrig ist, kann mit dem herkömmlichen System gearbeitet werden. Aber auch für höheren Bewuchs haben wir eine Lösung, sprechen Sie uns gerne an.

Ja. Es gibt Süd-, Ost/West-, First- (dachparalleles Beschwerungssysteme) und Alpin-Systeme – je nach baulichen und örtlichen Gegebenheiten.

Standardmäßig 10° Neigung bei Ost/West-Systemen, bzw. 10° oder 15° bei Süd-Systemen.

Nein. Es reicht ein Innensechskant, Akkuschrauber und ein Zollstock oder Laser für die Ausrichtung.

Start by laying out the base rails (module supports), aligned according to the module plan. The row spacing is determined by the length of the transverse modules.

No. The system has building protection pads under all system feet to prevent damage to the roof covering.

Use a string, laser or our positioning aid to align the rows precisely before connecting or ballasting them.

You can also place the modules individually. However, row connectors ensure stability and reduce ballasting. The larger the connected module field, the less ballast is usually required.

With an end clamp on the first module carrier – insert the module, then attach the clamp and screw it tight.

The distance between the modules is determined by the system’s base rails.

Klickfix module clamps with 8–10 Nm, conventional clamps with screws and slotted nuts with 12–14 Nm. Always use a torque wrench!

We offer components such as equipotential bonding terminals, aluminium round wire, etc. for earthing in our online shop. For a final earthing concept for the system, please contact your electrician.

Create a smooth support surface! Level with rubber mats or panels – do not correct with the system itself.

Yes, especially for small roofs. Ensure correct ballasting.

Conventional middle and end clamps that are screwed into press-in nuts located in the frame. They are suitable for all standard module frame thicknesses.

No. We use conventional clamps and screws for our flat roof systems.

No, the screw connection is made in the existing press-in nuts in the frame.

With end clamps. Wind deflectors are also installed on south-facing systems.

With our south-facing systems, you need one wind deflector plate per module. It minimises wind loads under the modules.

With the screws provided in the rear support of the frames. Press-fit nuts for screw connections are also already provided here.

Yes, it is advisable to earth the entire system – please contact your electrician. Profiness offers components for earthing flat roof systems.

They connect several module carriers together – for mechanical stability and minimal ballasting.

That depends on the space available on the roof. Please feel free to use our enquiry form. We will plan your system free of charge.

Yes. The South system is designed for single-sided mounting with a 10° or 15° inclination.

A roof-parallel ballast system that is connected via the roof ridge.

In the ridge system, the modules are aligned parallel to the roof, meaning that the angle of the roof determines the angle of the modules. East-west systems are designed for flat roofs, with a standard module mounting angle of 10°.

A particularly stable flat roof system for high snow and wind loads. Designed for maximum load-bearing capacity (e.g. in alpine regions).

In regions with high snow loads (e.g. snow load zone 3) or strong wind pressure.

Yes. However, these are two fundamentally different systems. We automatically take all relevant factors into account in the individual planning we create for your system.

This varies depending on the system. You can find the grid dimensions for our systems in our brochures and installation instructions.

Yes. For a maximum of 12 modules, row breaks should be planned to allow for thermal expansion of the material.

With cable ducts or UV-resistant cable ties underneath the modules along the module supports.

We have shortened systems that allow as many modules as possible to be placed even in small areas.

Yes. Our shortened systems are ideal for small roofs. Pay particular attention to wind load and ballast carefully!

Always according to the design. Place concrete slabs (e.g. paving slabs) centrally on the designated ballast supports (ballast feet).

This can vary greatly depending on the region, wind and snow loads, and other factors. The exact amount of ballast required is calculated on a project-specific basis.

Water canisters are not recommended. Only use weather-resistant, permanently dimensionally stable objects. Paving slabs are well suited.

The wind load is particularly high here. More ballast or even bracing may be necessary – please take individual planning into account.

Via equipotential bonding terminals on beams, terminals and series connectors – in accordance with VDE guidelines.

No, if all terminals with integrated earthing have been used and correctly screwed in place. For further information on earthing, please contact your electrician.

Shorten the row or change its position. Shading significantly reduces the overall yield.

Visual inspection once a year: Check the position of the modules, clamps, ballast, contamination and cable routing.

Yes. The system is not usually screwed into the roof. Remove the ballast, take off the modules, loosen the supports – done.

Yes. The complete assembly instructions (PDF) are available for download.
