STEP 2: PREPARE FRONT FASCIA
Components Needed
Front fascia
Front fascia splice insert
Fascia drain
Fascia dams
Caulking tube & gun
Top post connector
Tools Recommended
FIRST: Lay the hanging channel and front
fascia parallel and evenly on a flat level non-
abrasive surface or slab. Mark top of front
fascia & hanging channel every 12” from end
to end with a small permanent marker. Marks
will be needed during STEP 9 for locking-in
roof panels. NOTE: Last space will be 12 ¾”
opening to allow for flange width on last
panel. DO NOT cut the hanging channel.
SECOND: Determine fascia drain location
near end of fascia. Cut 1-1/2” or 2” diameter
hole with hole saw on bottom end of each
fascia. Insert drain and fasten with two #8 x
5/8” Tek screws per drain. Compress & Insert
fascia dams on each end of fascia and caulk
around them generously.
THIRD: Determine post spacing across
entire bottom of front fascia by marking 1’ 3”
from both ends of front fascia as top post
connector as guide. Mark equal spacing for
remaining post. Drill ¼” holes on marks in
bottom side of fascia. Attach with bolts &
washers and caulk inside fascia around
protruding bolt heads.
