ROOF MOUNT 

(FIGURE 1) 

 

The siren may be mounted as shown on a support or platform on a flat roof.  

See Figure 5 for details of construction for a suggested roof mount.  The siren 

should be mounted higher than the highest snow level anticipated at the 

installation. 

 

PARAPET MOUNT 

(FIGURE 2) 

 

Various custom-built mounts may be used similar to the parapet mount 

illustrated.  Actual design will be dictated by building construction and height 

desired. 

 

CHIMNEY MOUNT 

(FIGURE 3) 

 

A sturdy chimney may provide a convenient support for mounting the siren.  

The possibility of corrosive or staining smoke should be considered when this 

type of installation is planned.  Use 4" heavy wall galvanized pipe to a 

maximum height of 10 feet above the top of the chimney.  Use larger pipe for 

greater height. 

 

 

TOWER 

OR 

TANK MOUNT 

(FIGURE 4) 

 

A properly situated tower or tank may serve as an ideal mount.  The 

support platform must be designed with adequate bracing to carry the 

total load.
