Installation Manual

H Profile

  • Step 1

    Fix two sheets in place with a 1.5-inch gap between them

  • Step 2

    Polycarbonate Installation

    Slide the H profile between the sheets

  • Step 3

    Screw the H profile every 2 feet

Tapes and u caps

  •  Aluminum tape

    Apply aluminum tape to the top of the sheet and vented (anti-dust) tape to the bottom to protect against dust, bugs, and debris.



  • U caps

    Install U caps to seal the edges.

Screws

    • When pre-drilling polycarbonate, make the hole 1.5 to 2 times the diameter of the fastener to allow for thermal expansion and contraction
    •  Use screws with neoprene gaskets (1 inch) or plastic washers
    •  Place screws every 2 feet. For example, for a sheet measuring 4 ft x 8 ft, you will need 15 screws
    • Avoid over-screwing
    •  No need to put screws into the sheet near the connector if the connector is screwed in

Silicon

  • After installing all U caps and H/Snap profiles, apply a thin layer of silicone where the connectors meet the sheet for added sealing and protection
