    Q:Do you install the U-Channels with the longer side up or down? I've been having moisture build up at the bottom of my Sunlite panels (they are sloped). I've also read about drilling small "weep" holes in the U-Channels to allow moisture to drain. True?

    Answer This Question

    A:  Per the photos in the installation guide, the U Channel should be installed with the shorter edge facing upward. We have never heard of drilling "weep" holes in the profile

      Q:Which side up? Longer flat side or shorter side

      Answer This Question

      A:  If the masking is no longer on the panel, you can tell which side should face up by looking on the outer edges. On one edge will be an inkjet stamp. This side should face the sun.

          This is awful stuff to use. The u-channels and the snap caps were extremely stiff. We tried using dawn soap and other lubricants to no avail, the roofing would not click in. The snap caps eventually split. We ended up screwing the roofing to 2x4’s and caulking the gaps

          They are great once up. Kinda difficult to get together when putting up on high buildings. But went together well and I love them.
