3.  Wrap the Tek screw and joint using duct tape.
4.  Repeat the steps and continue to assemble and feed 

the PVC conduit into the pocket.

5.  Once the PVC conduit is fully assembled, secured at 

the joints, and inserted into the pocket, repeat the steps 

for the remaining end of the main cover.

6.  With both PVC conduits assembled and installed, verify 

that the cover is centered on the frame and move to 

one end rafter.

7.  Cut four (4) sections of the 1" strap from the bulk roll 

that are long enough to tie the PVC conduit to the end 

rafter in evenly spaced locations. 

INSTALL PVC CONDUIT (CONTINUED)

8.  Move to the end of the frame opposite the end where 

the temporary straps were tied.

9.  Take one end of the bulk roll of 1" strapping and weave 

it around the end rafter and PVC conduit.  

10. Continue to weave the strap around the end rafter and 

PVC conduit working up and over the rafter and down 

to the other end of the PVC conduit. 

 

NOTE:

 Keep the strapping snug during this step, but 

do not over tighten. Also, maintain a even distance 

between the top of the end rafter and the PVC conduit.

Photo shows the installed strapping. Distance between 

the conduit in the pocket and the end rafter is even.

11.  After weaving the strapping, cut the strap and tie it to 

the end rafter to temporarily secure it.

12. Take the remainder of the bulk strap roll, move to the 

other end of the frame and repeat the steps to weave 

the strap between the PVC conduit and the top of the 

end rafter. 

 

NOTE:

 The temporary straps at this end (Step 7) can 

be removed once the main strapping is in place.

13. After the strap is completely installed at this end, cut 

the strap to length and tie it to the end rafter.

Dashed lines show the 

temporary straps  

(Step 7) tied between 

the PVC conduit and 

the top of the end rafter 

to keep the main cover 

centered on the frame 

during the installation 

of the strapping at the 

other end of the frame.
