Polycarbonate: Tips for installation, unusual use for the fence, interior, beds
Polycarbonate the ideal material for the construction of greenhouses, sheds, gazebos or visor for the front door. Despite the ease of installation, many questions arise, and over time problems.
Polycarbonate begins to turn yellow, and water accumulates in the dust. This reduces the service life and requires repair. Let's talk about the installation of tricks, bugs and features of the material.
There is a sale of household and industrial (8-10 mm.) Polycarbonate. The latter is more durable, with a high degree of protection. For the greenhouse is the best option - Polycarbonate 4 - 6 mm. This material is the most flexible. For greenhouses is not required and the foundation is better to choose a material with UV protection.
After buying the best material to hold it in a warm place, to avoid moisture in the internal channels. Polycarbonate is able to expand and contract from temperature changes. So prepare elastic and soft sealing. I do not need much to tighten screws when mounting.
Do not leave open channels of polycarbonate. Soon the cells will fall into the water, dust, dirt. With the onset of cold weather the insects crawl. Decision: Channels must be closed spec. tape. Top cover tape is already a profile. Since the tape is perforated, does not accumulate condensate.
Some people use regular tape, and silicone corners. Six months later, the material lost properties: began crumbling edge, collapsed tape, the material itself began to collapse. In some places the water has entered and froze. As a result, ripped in several places inside the plastic. Therefore, only the tape and edge profiles. You can use the regular budget plastic profile size.
Manufacturer of polycarbonate with a protective layer marks the side on which it is applied. During installation, do not remove the film to see which side of the protective layer. Party without additional protection without marking. If you mount the polycarbonate upside down, the material will turn yellow and crumble hail, strong winds, birds and so on. Therefore, it is important to mount the side plates secured to the sun.
After installation, you must remove the film otherwise it prikipit the sun to polycarbonate.
