END PANEL INSTALLATION
After installing end wall framing, attach polycarbonate
panels. Steps that follow describe one way to complete end
wall panel installation.
Materials and parts needed to install end panels include:
• Polycarbonate Panels (See diagrams in Quick Start
section for panel layout and identification.)
• White vent tape (104774) & foil tape (DH8007)
• Aluminum H-channel (113236Z096)
•
End cap profile (104548) & U-channel (104213)
• Tek screws (FA4484B) & Neo-bonded, galvanized
washers (102921B)
Read the following information before starting:
• H-channel is used to join two (2) separate panels at
seam.
• Tek Screws and galvanized washers are used to
secure panels to each end wall frame column.
• Install polycarbonate panels with UV-protected side to
the outside. Mark side with a marker or tape to identify
after removing protective film if needed.
ATTENTION:
Remove protective film from panels
before installation.
Do not allow film to remain intact
and in direct sunlight;
doing so will make film difficult
if not impossible
to remove.
• During preparation, rest edges of panels on cardboard
or other material to protect them from dirt and damage.
• Seal bottom edge of panels with white vent tape. Top is
sealed with foil tape after installation.
• Consult polycarbonate panels (Quick Start section)
for location and lengths of each panel. Diagrams are
located at the back of these instructions.
ATTENTION:
Position panels as shown on panel diagrams.
Using a panel in the incorrect place can affect placement of
subsequent panels. Begin at
door end
of frame.
Always remove protective film and mark and install UV-
protected side to the outside toward the sun.
2. Apply vent tape
along one end of panel to
seal cells.
This is bottom of panel when installed.
3. Install a piece of 104213 U-channel along door edge of
panel. Consult panel location diagrams. Place panel at
edge of opening for door as shown below.
