*Items are used with the supplied 2" and 3" pvc to direct water from the gutters to
a holding tank or other storage container. These components are used for water
storage and gutter downspout. Contact your sales representative for additional

BASIC INSTALLATION STEPS
Sample buildings are shown in the diagrams. Actual building may differ.
ATTENTION:
Field adjustments to these steps may be required during
installation. If you are not familiar with the assembly and installation of
greenhouse and high tunnel buildings that include a film or fabric roof cover,
consult with a knowledgeable contract
before you begin
.
These are the basic installation steps:
1. Attach the 111613Z144 to the building
above
the ribbon boards for the
building drop-down or roll-up sides.
2. Determine the required slope of the gutter system and mark the bracket
and/or customer-supplied ribbon board position on the building frame.
NOTE:
Install the 113074 brackets when the curve of the rafter is too
great to allow for the installation of customer-supplied 1" x 4" boards.
Brackets help to plumb the boards and gutter brackets when installed.
3. Attach 113074 brackets to the rafters and customer-supplied 1" x 4"
boards to the 113074 brackets.
If brackets are not needed, attach the
customer-supplied boards directly to the rafters.
4. Secure the 2' wide section of film to the 111613Z144 and to the
u-channel attached to the building using the 102198 spring wire.
5. Attach the 113623 gutter brackets to the 1" x 4" boards (Step 2).
6. Secure main cover film in u-channel using the 102198 spring wire.
7. Snap the 10' gutter sections onto the 113623 gutter brackets. Secure
each gutter splice using 113624 gutter connector and 113628 sealant.
8. Install the 113627 drop outlet and the left (113625) and right (113626)
gutter end caps. Seal using the 113628 sealant.
9. If a reservoir was purchased, use the 2" and 3" pvc components
included with this kit to direct water to the reservoir. Additional parts
may be needed for custom water collection systems.
Contact your sales
representative to purchase additional pvc components.
10. Place the free end of the cover film inside the gutter. Cut as needed to
allow film to fit around the vinyl gutter brackets and into the gutter.
11. Make 1" vertical cuts in cover and thread the fiberglass rods through
these to secure the cover material in the gutter.
