More Over
According to DIN 4095, drainage layers must be arranged on ceilings that are to be covered with earth so that excess water can be safely drained away. As a rule, drainage layers are applied over the entire surface, not only under greenery, but also under pavements, terraces, play areas, etc. Floradrain® FD 60 neo, Stabilodrain® and Elastodrain® can even be used under pavements. With correspondingly high drainage elements, puddles can be bridged or the underside sewer system can be used for impoundment irrigation. This is of particular interest for intensive greening on zero-degree roofs. Drainage elements of the Floratherm® type even have a "general building authority approval" as additional thermal insulation.

Installation Instructions
This installation instructions describe the essential steps of using this product. In addition, please observe the relevant standards and guidelines, in particular the provisions of occupational health and safety. If there is a risk of storms, the installation should not take place.
1) Installation:
The RSX 65 spacer elements are laid next to each other on a protective layer, e.g. the PV system filter, on the root-proof sealed roof.
If the RSX 65 elements are to be driven on, it is advisable to secure them against slipping beforehand with four connectors per element. Special connectors are available for this purpose, which are inserted into the recesses of the RSX 65 elements. In this case, installation with offset is not possible.
After installation, the RSX 65 elements must be covered immediately (UV protection!). To secure the elements against blowing away, it makes sense to weigh them down with substrate bags, for example.
2) Cutting:
The elements can be cut with a commercial angle grinder, electric cutter or hot wire. The elements can only be separated from each other at connecting bars, otherwise the element becomes too unstable. When cutting, care must be taken to ensure that the layers that have already been laid are not damaged under any circumstances! If damage does occur, it must be reported and repaired immediately.
The RSX 65 elements must be cut out over roof drains according to the drain size.
Tool recommendation: Hand-held circular saw
