UNIVERSAL SLOPE APPLICATIONS
1
Universal Slope Applications O to 2/12 Slope In a staggered pattern, space guards 12” on center horizontally along the eve line. Place one row for every 50’ of the roof’s run from eve to ridge. For roof panel widths of 9-12” use one guard per panel per row. For roof panel widths of 12-24” use 2 guards per panel per row. 3/12 to 6/12 Slope One row of Polar Blox staggered perlin to perlin or 12” on center horizontally using glue for every 25’of roof. FIGURE: length of roof divided by two plus one for each row required on each side. 6/12 Slope and Up One row of Polar Blox for every 12' of roof from eve to ridge. Place guards 12” on center in a straight row. FIGURE: one for each foot of roof plus one for each row required. 1. Determine desired location of Polar Blox per manufacturer's recommendation. 2. Apply a transparent silicone adhesive to the base of the unit. (Use a non-Acetic acid type on Galvalume or Galvanized roofs.) 3. Use two self tapping #14 screws with neoprene washers under the heads, screw through the Polar Blox and roofing material, into the purlin or structural support. 4. Make a seal around the entire perimeter of the snow guard. 5. Each Polar Blox should jut up from the roof's surface perpendicular to its slope and face diagonally skyward toward the ridge at the top of the roof. Directions for Screw Down Application 1. Determine desired location of Polar Blox per manufacturer's recommendation. 2. Clean the surface with soap and water or rubbing alcohol. Allow to dry completely before installing. 3. The Polar Blox should be placed with the holes down toward the roof. 4. Smear the adhesive on the bottom side of the Polar Blox, covering the entire surface to be mounted. 5. Press Polar Blox on roof, making sure there is no air trapped underneath. Squeeze-out is the recommended finish. 6. In warmer temperatures it may be necessary to secure the Polar Blox temporarily, unitl the adhesive firms. 7. The minimum application temperature is 50°F and the full curing time is 28 days. For further assistance or questions, please call and ask for technical assistance. Recommended Adhesives: Surebond SB-190 for Kynar Painted roofs Surebond SB-895 for Galvanized or Galvalume roofs Directions for Adhesive Mounting General layout recommendations. Snow load variations must be considered. Please call for a customized layout.
