Manage the risks
Roof management of a Sloped roof : the risks
Insulating a pitched roof, whether from the inside or outside, poses specific risks that can affect the performance and durability of the insulation system. Improper insulation can lead to moisture problems such as condensation, moisture infiltration and mold growth. In addition, air leaks and fire safety can also be concerns with these insulation methods.
Sensor Technology
To reduce and monitor these risks, we rely on advanced sensor technology strategically placed in the roof. Our sensors continuously measure humidity, moisture and temperature, regardless of whether the roof is insulated from the inside or outside. This allows us to quickly detect potential moisture problems and take corrective action before damage occurs.
PV and greenery on a pitched roof: insight and control
Preventing problems
In addition, our sensors offer additional benefits when installing other roof-related systems, such as PV panels or a green roof. For PV panels, the sensors can help monitor temperature and humidity, allowing for optimization of panel efficiency and early detection of any problems. For a green roof, the sensors can help regulate humidity and monitor growing conditions, promoting vegetation health and preventing potential irrigation problems.
Maximize performance
Using our advanced sensors, we can offer our customers peace of mind knowing that their roof and any integrated systems are constantly monitored and protected. Early detection allows us to take proactive action and maximize the durability and performance of the entire roof surface.

Roof management of a pitched roof: the risks
Leak detection: prevent damage
We see from the data whether moisture is accumulating in the roof, whether the roof on top is dirty but also what the thermal resistance is in the roof. Based on that data, we alert our customers to risks before damage occurs. We enable our customers to intervene before things go wrong.
Real-time insight into the pitched roof
Inscio provides a software suite, completely web-based so can be used anywhere, to look at the condition of the roof in real time. Does that mean someone always has to log in to look at the problems? No! We have smart signaling based on roof algorithms, automatically Inscio users are informed about possible anomalies and risks.
Just-in-time maintenance
Property owners, as well as roofers and manufacturers, obviously do not want leaks and damage during the warranty period. Yet differences in temperature and humidity can lead to surprises after only a few years. Inscio ensures that you can intervene exactly in time, neither too early nor too late, through virtually real-time sensor data and signaling on deviations and problems
Fewer inspections, fewer movements, fewer emissions
Property owners perform condition measurements to determine the condition of maintenance-sensitive elements. So too for the roof. This inspection process is time-consuming, labor-intensive and only marginally objective.
Inscio sensors provide objective readings, i.e. an actual picture, of the roof remotely. There is no, or much less, need to inspect roofs and therefore delivers a huge reduction in movements and thus emissions.
Our customers tell
"Until last fall, we informed clients and partners about expected roof behavior based on practical experience. Now we provide objective measurement data"
