Handling Panels

Panel Handling and Storage
* When handling panels individually, keep the panel vertical to the ground to prevent bending or other damage.
* When handling painted panels, be careful so that you do not scratch the pre-painted surface.
* When storing panels, it is the customer's responsibility to store them properly to prevent damage from the elements.
* Bundles need to be stored up off the ground.
* Elevate one side of the bundle higher than the other to prevent slow moisture accumulation.
* When bundles are being stored for long periods of time, cut the banding holding the panels in the bundle together so that moisture isn't trapped in the bundle.
* Do not store panels near corrosive chemicals, buildings emitting fumes, fertilizer, salt water, or any place where water can accumulate near the stored panels.
