General installation tips
Please read this manual carefully.
The installation must be carried out by people with sufficient technical knowledge and experience in the area of conservatory
installation. The installer must take the required safety measures into account during the installation such as the use of
scaffolding and personal protection equipment (safety shoes, helmet (i.e. a hard hat), gloves, safety goggles, etc.) to ensure
the work is carried out in a safe environment. During installation, please make sure that the necessary precautions have been
taken to ensure the stability of the unfinished construction.
Fixing material
The selection of required fixing material is dependent on the foundation or the walls. Check whether the foundation and
the walls on which the structure is to be anchored have a sufficient load-bearing capacity. The installer is responsible for
the assessment of the appropriate fixing materials for the load and foundation on which the structure is to be fixed. Please
contact your fixing material supplier or specialised engineering consultants in case of doubts. Skylux cannot be held liable for
the installation or the fixing materials used.
Static (Statik)
For roofs where the static (Statik) is required, please use the special static pieces
Please find the special installation instructions for posts at page 18-19 and for the gutter at page 24-25.
Seal installation
A distinction is made between push-in seals and slide seals.
The seal of a push-in seal is pushed into the profiles. The C2CX, C12, C8, CY10 and C31 seals are push-in seals.
Slide seals C1CX and C5 are slid into the profiles.
Seals C1CX and C2CX are equipped with an anti-stretch wire that prevents the seal from being stretched during installation.
This technology ensures that the seal cannot shrink after installation.
Avoid the use of silicone and detergent when installing the seals. Plastic sheets can be damaged by these products. Plastic
sheets can result in settlement noise due to temperature fluctuations. This will not affect the guarantee and will not be
accepted as a claim.
