Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the main purpose of this mesh for solar panels?
A: It prevents insects, birds, and rodents from entering the gap behind solar panels while allowing airflow. The FR treatment also adds fire resistance, making it safer for rooftop installations. -
Q: Can the mesh size be customized?
A: Yes, we offer various mesh openings such as 18x16, 20x20, or 14x18 per inch. Please specify your requirements when ordering. -
Q: Is this mesh suitable for outdoor use in all climates?
A: Absolutely. The PVC coating provides excellent UV resistance, and the fiberglass core remains stable from -40°C to +120°C, making it suitable for hot, cold, humid, or dry environments. -
Q: How does the flame retardant property affect the mesh?
A: The FR treatment makes the mesh self-extinguishing when exposed to flame, meaning it will not continue to burn after the ignition source is removed. This meets common safety standards for solar installations. -
Q: What roll dimensions are available?
A: Standard rolls are 1m wide x 30m long, but we can customize width from 0.5m to 2m and length up to 100m per roll. -
Q: Do you provide samples before bulk order?
A: Yes, we offer free samples (shipping cost may apply) so you can evaluate the quality and fit for your application. -
Q: What is the lead time for large orders?
A: Typically 15-25 working days after order confirmation, depending on quantity and customization. We can also arrange express delivery for urgent orders. -
Q: How should I install this mesh?
A: The mesh can be cut with scissors or a utility knife. It is typically attached to the solar panel frame using clips, adhesive, or pressure fit. Detailed installation instructions are available upon request.
