Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires standard roofing tools, including a drill with proper bits and specialized roofing screws with EPDM washers to create a watertight seal. Ensure the sheets are oriented with the UV-protected side facing upwards toward the sun; check the manufacturer label if unsure. When overlapping sheets, ensure you cover at least one full corrugation to prevent lateral water leakage.
For cleaning, avoid abrasive brushes or harsh chemical solvents that could scratch the polycarbonate surface. Use a soft cloth, mild soapy water, and a low-pressure hose to remove dirt and dust. Regularly check the fasteners during the first year of use, as thermal expansion and contraction may require minor tightening.
