Solar Panel Mesh Kit Installation Guide

Tools required: Gloves (provided in 10m pack only) metal snips and pliers.

1. The place provided clips with every 30-40cm along the underneath of the solar panel frame and pull tight.
2. Roll out the solar panel mesh and cut it into manageable 2-metre lengths for easier handling. Position the mesh in place, making sure the fastening rod points upwards so it keeps a downward pressure on the mesh to create a firm barrier to the roof. Allow the bottom to flare out and curve along the roof, this will ensure rodents and birds cannot access under the mesh.
3. Attach the fastening washer and push firmly to the end to tightly secure the mesh.
4. When joining the next section of mesh, overlay approximately 10cm and join the 2 pieces with cable ties to create a complete barrier.
5. For outer corners; cut upwards from the bottom until the bend point. Cut a section of mesh to cover any gaps using cable ties to fix the corner piece in place.
6. For inner corners: cut the mesh upwards from the bottom until the end point, secure any overlay sections together using cable ties.
