However, sometimes you can use a larger base with a decking-only attachment without crushing the insulation. The IronRidge Flat Roof Attachment (FRA) is a large diameter base with a LOT of fastener holes. They also do angled fasteners and you can get really good uplift capability with a decking-only attachment.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Jason</div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font-family:"helvetica neue",helvetica,arial,sans-serif"><tbody><tr><td rowspan="2"></td><td rowspan="2"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;border-left-color:rgb(237,237,237);color:rgb(85,85,85);font-size:13px;padding-left:10px"><tbody><tr><td colspan="1"><br></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table><b><div style="text-align:center"><br></div></b></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br></div><br><img width="0" height="0" class="mailtrack-img" alt="" style="display:flex" src="https://mailtrack.io/trace/mail/bc98a53a0cd4c7711e60007739ae381712cd4d46.png?u=1613865"><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Nov 3, 2021 at 5:04 PM August Goers <<a href="mailto:august@luminalt.com">august@luminalt.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Adam - <div><br></div><div>This is a good topic. We are finding more and more flat roofs with rigid insulation installed over the wood decking to provide cricketing (for drainage) and insulation for the home. Installing standard stanchions is difficult because it is hard to find the rafters and also we need to use a hole saw to cut through the rigid insulation so the base of the stanchion has a solid deck to attach to. Very difficult all around! Nonetheless, we still mainly use Chemlink E-Curbs or work with a roofer to flash and seal.<div><br></div><div>We have tried a few projects with the Unirac Flashloc RM product: <a href="https://mailtrack.io/trace/link/3d025f2275ca5127cd9f03281cf84363d71c8f14?url=https%3A%2F%2Funirac.com%2Fflashloc-rm%2F&userId=1613865&signature=abe37ff8c80dc5db" target="_blank">https://unirac.com/flashloc-rm/</a> All in all, our crews like them although they are expensive.
