Maintenance and inspections
The user of MERCOR S.A. equipment
shall ensure periodic inspection
and
maintenance
every six months
throughout the whole period of operation, both during and
after the warranty period.
Therefore, adequate means of access must be provided
to enable carrying out periodic
inspections, maintenance and warranty repairs of the equipment concerned.
The equipment
installed on the roof must be accessible by adequate means of access (ladder or lift).
In addition, between the successive inspections it is recommended to:
1. Check the electrical lines, paying particular attention to any mechanical damage.
2. Check the pneumatic lines, focusing on mechanical damage, paying particular attention
to any mechanical damage.
3. Check the hook brackets (verify if they are fully closed and not blocked).
4. Check if the leaf hold frame is securely fixed and the seals abut the leaf infill.
5. Periodically clean the domes, polycarbonate panels. use a sponge or soft cloth and
lukewarm water with some amount of a typical, mild household cleaner. Do not scrub
the panels with brushes or sharp utensils. Do not use abrasives, strong alkaline
substances, solvents, etc. If unsure, try the cleaner on a sample or small area of the
product.
6. Due to natural environmental processes, water vapour may condensate inside the cells
of polycarbonate panels. A mist forms in most cases and clearly seen drops can also
appear if humidity is really high. Subject to ensuring diffusion of air between the cells
and the outside environment the levels of humidity will equalise and the above-
described visual effects should disappear.
Condensation of water vapour does not compromise the service life of the material
or the quality of the product.
NOTE:
Do not use ice melt salts on roofs where there are mcr LAM louvered vents. Salt can
discolour or even damage the polycarbonate panels, acrylic domes or aluminium sections.
Note that the resulting damage is not covered by the warranty.
