SIDE EXTENSION REFLECTOR (Not for Outdoor Use)
Optional Side Extension Reflectors may be installed on
either side of the unit. Each 8 ft. (2.4 m) section of Side
Reflector should match a reflector and have identical
overlap to adjacent reflectors. Provide slip joints in the
same locations as the reflectors. Proceed as follows
(see Figure 18):
1. Attach a reflector side extension support bracket to the
tubes where needed. These brackets should be located
adjacent to the overlapped joints of the reflectors.
2. Inser t lower edge of reflector side extension in
extension support bracket.
3. Cut suitable relief notches where the side extension
reflector meets tube and reflector hangers and
reflector support brackets.
4. Hook the top edge of the side extension reflector over
the edge of the reflector.
5. A slip joint must be provided in the perimeter side
extension at the location of each slip joint in the
reflector. The overlap should be the same as the
reflector.
6. Where severe air movement may be encountered, as
at a large door, one or two sheet metal screws should
be used to attach the side extension reflectors
together. Additional reflector suppor ts are also
recommended.
7. To Install the Retainer Clips: Lay bracket over the side
extension reflector and standard reflector at the
selected location. By using the hole in the clip as a
template, drill or punch a 3/32" (2.4 cm) diameter pilot
hole in the standard reflector. Secure the retainer clip
using #8 x 3/8" sheet metal screws.
