How To Clean Your Polycarbonate Roof - Tuflite
Polymers
If you have polycarbonate roofing sheets
installed in your structure, you have made one of
the wisest decisions of your life! This is
because polycarbonate is strong, durable, long
lasting, light in weight, impact resistant, and
has innumerous amazing qualities, all imbibed
together. All of these qualities make
polycarbonate roofs easy to install and long to
last. But, to make it last even longer and
better, you must know how to maintain it. While
polycarbonate takes very less to maintain
lesser efforts and lesser costs you must know
the right way to keep it maintained.
First and foremost, you must always read
your manufacturers guide and consult a
professional, if required. Although almost every
manufacturers guide for a polycarbonate roof
will be the same, or similar, you must go
through it just in case. Next, you must ensure
your own safety first. Before planning to climb
onto your roof, you must have all the safety
gear. Any carelessness may not only bring you to
encounter an accident, but may also damage your
roof. For this, you must fit a temporary safety
rail, and wear quite some protective equipment
like non-slip boots, wraparound safety glasses,
and protection gloves. You may also require a
safety line and harness if your roof is too high.

After this, ensure that if your guttering system
is connected to a water storage tank, you must
disconnect it, or else any kind of chemicals or
soap while cleaning your roof may take them into
your water storage. Other than disconnecting, you
can also clean your guttering system with the
help of a gutter brush. You may also fit a gutter
guard there. Once you are all set to clean your
roof, you need to know the right way to clean
your polycarbonate roofing sheets. Cleaning
polycarbonate is very simple. All you need is
warm or room temperature water, mild soap, and a
sponge or soft cloth. You start with cleaning the
roof with plain water. Then, you mix the soap
and water to make a soapy solution, and wash the
roof with it. You can use the sponge here to help
clean the roof. Lastly, you again wash the roof
with plain water, and then dry it off with a soft
clean cloth. Remember not to use too hold or too
cold water, harsh chemicals, and abrasive cloth
or similar materials. Any of these will damage
your roof. Another important thing to remember
here is using only one direction while cleaning
the roof. Use the direction that is parallel to
the grain of the roof. Any other direction or
random cleaning may damage the roof. See, how
easy it is to clean and maintain a polycarbonate
roof! So now, if you havent yet taken the wise
decision of installing polycarbonate for your
