HANDLING AND SAFETY

Uninstalled grp soakers / roof units are fragile and vulnerable to damage, accordingly they

should be handled with great care. Upon receipt close inspection should be made and any

defects reported within 48 Hours. No claim will be accepted thereafter.

Glass Fibre splinters are an irritant. Gloves should be worn when handling GRP goods. If eye

contamination occurs, seek medical assistance. Correctly handled Systemair Ltd GRP products

represent no health hazard, however should cutting, abrading or drilling be required, gloves,

eye, and respiratory protection MUST

be worn.

All GRP soakers / roof units are classified as 'fragile roofing component', provide no form of

structural support and should be marked and treated accordingly. Under no circumstances

should soakers be walked upon. All openings, surrounding structure, plant & equipment must

be independently supported in accordance with local building regulations.

MAINTENANCE

Systemair GRP soakers / roof units require no maintenance. Should cleaning be desired, this

should be carried out using a mild detergent. Abrasives or solvents should not be used. Slight

fading of pigment may occur due to the effect of ultra violet rays during service; this will not

affect performance of the products. Under normal conditions a life expectancy in excess of 25

years is advised.

INSTALLATION

Systemair Soakers / Roof units are fragile and should be installed with great care. Particular

attention should be given to avoid twisting, bending, or dropping the products. Systemair Ltd

recommend Soaker fastening should be carried out using self drilling/tapping screws of

suitable material fitted with minimum 19mm twinseal "deckfast" washers. All side and endlaps

should be fitted with B27 foam sidelap or similar suitable sealant. Soakers should be

undertucked beneath the covering sheet or ridge by minimum 200 mm. Profile fillers should be

used at ridge/eaves situations. Installation should only be carried out by suitably qualified and

capable personnel. Systemair roof units should not be fitted to roofs in excess of 30 degree

pitch. Cowl bolts fitted to roof terminals should be checked for tension after installation should

loosening have occurred during transit. Systemair accepts no liability or responsibility for claims

resulting from product failure as a result of loosened fasteners or incorrect reassembly of units.

Completed installations should be clearly identified and treated as “Fragile Roof”

IMPORTANT NOTES

Responsibility for determining that any building component complies with the relevant Building

Regulations rests solely with the client/specifiers.
