ANTENNA-DISH INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
The following requirements were developed to ensure that the integrity of the roofing system or wall system will remain intact and that damages are avoided.
- This information should be submitted to the Jones Lang LaSalle Property Manager for approval no less than ten working days prior to scheduled installation:
A complete set of antenna specifications including installation and weight requirements (roof mount or wall mount).
Confirmation of ballast type, weight or anchoring mechanism.
Copy of permits, if required.
Proposed roof-top location, drawings.
Electrical requirements not specified within antenna specifications.
Contact name and number for installing contractor and tenant contact. Obtain necessary insurance certificate(s).
- The following procedures are REQUIRED for all roof-mount, non-penetrating antennas:
Rubber membrane is to be thoroughly swept and washed prior to placement of antenna base and ballast pans.
Minimum 3/4" rubber pad under the ballast pans of antenna.
Pads are to be glued to antenna pans.
Pans or pads are NOT to be glued to roofing membrane.
Existing roof ballast is NOT to be used in the antenna ballast pans.
Welding or soldering on the roof deck is not permitted.
Changes in scope of installation must be approved by Jones Lang LaSalle Property Management prior to start of work.
Antenna must not obstruct access to mechanical systems, doorways, parapet, walk paths, etc.
Antenna system must be properly grounded.
Any penetration to penthouse wall or parapet for cable and electrical use must be properly sealed at time of penetration.
No penetrations to the roof system are permitted with the installation of a non-penetrating, roof mount type antenna unless approved by Jones Lang LaSalle.
- Potential problems associated with non-penetrating roof mount antenna:
Depressed roof insulation under rubber membrane changing drainage pattern, increased ponding, bacterial growth, etc.
Stress on rubber seams if antenna is not properly located. Potential leak hazard.
Antenna shifting due to strong wind, damage to membrane and surrounding.
- The following procedures are required for all roof-mounted penetrating antenna:
Each item in Section I and II F, G, H, I above.
Review roof warranty. If there is a warranty in effect, be sure to notify the roofing manufacturer of the installation prior to installation of the antenna. Only the manufacturer's approved representative contractor can open the roof system without potentially voiding a warranty.
Structural consultant should be retained at tenant's expense, to review and approve drawings, specifications, anchoring procedures and wind load calculations. Consultant and building engineer should be on-site to verify proper installation and follow up with a brief written report.
Jones Lang LaSalle reserves the right to periodically inspect the installation and recommend corrections or reasonable alterations that would further minimize the potential for roof and/or building damage.
