STORAGE
The louvers and components are shipped in semi-enclosed wooden crates, and
should be left in the crate until ready for installation. Inside storage is
preferable. If outside storage is required, the crates should be blocked up or
otherwise elevated from the ground or pavement, and covered securely with
waterproof coverings of plastic film. Wraps “Coverall” or “Visqueen” film
sheeting is recommended as adequate protection, however, any plastic film
waterproof sheeting of equal quality is acceptable. Louvers and components are
not wrapped or protected from moisture or dirt within the wooden crates. If
prolonged storage is anticipated, either inside or out in the weather,
adequate steps should be taken to protect the units and their finishes. It is
also possible to order individual-section plastic wrap when long-term storage
is anticipated. Handling to and from storage should be accomplished with the
wooden crates intact. Physical damages, marred finishes, loss of loose parts
and fasteners, and separation of associated components may occur if crates are
dismantled and louver components removed to facilitate storage.

The louver finish may be subject to deterioration dependent solely upon the environment in which sun controls are installed. Appearance and longevity of the finish may be greatly extended by an occasional cleaning, the frequency of which, is again solely dependent upon the environment. Proper cleaning may be accomplished with the use of a light scrubbing action, used in conjunction with a good grade of common household mild detergent. Harsh acidic or caustic cleaners are not recommended. Under no condition should the louver or component finish be scrubbed with an abrasive cleaner or apparatus.
