(4) Regular cleaning of areas where contaminants harmful to the roofing system may accumulate, i.e., grease, Freon. B. Should you have a leak: (1) Contact GenFlex Roofing Systems Warranty Claims Administrator at (800) 443=4272. (2) Determine the cause of the leak. It may be the result of a clogged drain, loose counterflashing, etc. Failure to determine the cause may result in a service charge fee. (3) Under the terms of the warranty, notify GenFlex Roofing Systems in writing of all leaks within thirty (30) days. (4) If necessary, make temporary repairs with GenFlex edge caulk or a butyl J base caulking. Never use roof cement or petroleum base products. (5) Permanent repairs to the roofing system must be made by an ap- proved GenFlex contractor with GenFlex products. C.
