4. An interior drain essentially turns your flat roof into a sink.  Pros: The piping networks of an interior drain are protected from anything that happens outside of the building.  Cons: The most expensive of the three drainage solutions.

5. Installed on the edges of a flat roof, it shoots out water and other debris, usually onto a separate gutter or some other slanted surface which then gets funneled to reach the ground.  Pros: Scuppers are cheap to install and are the most efficient way of protecting a flat roof from debris.  Cons: Snow and ice can block passage to the scupper, resulting in massive roof leaks when the snow and ice melt.massive roof leaks Copyright @ ACCENT ROOFING AND CONSTRUCTION5 SCUPPERS

6. They will catch any and all forms of debris.  Pros: They are cheap and easy to install while having the ability to handle any form of debris.  Cons: Gutters must be cleaned constantly because debris builds up so quickly. Copyright @ ACCENT ROOFING AND CONSTRUCTION6 GUTTERS
