FAQs
Can these sheets be cut to size?
Yes, they can be easily cut using a fine-tooth saw or a sharp utility knife with a straight edge.
Which side should face the sun?
The side labeled with UV protection must face outward to prevent damage from solar radiation.
Is hardware included in the 18-piece set?
No, this product consists of the sheets only; you will need to provide your own greenhouse frame and fasteners.
How do I clean the panels?
Wash with mild soap and water using a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive scrubbers to keep the surface clear.
Are these panels clear or opaque?
They are designed to be transparent to maximize light transmission while providing structural durability.
Troubleshooting
Moisture buildup inside the cellular channels
Ensure the top edges of the panels are properly sealed with waterproof tape to prevent humidity from entering the cells.
Sheet rattling in strong winds
Check all fastening points and tighten screws, ensuring you are using rubber-backed washers to allow for minor thermal expansion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting your project, ensure your greenhouse frame is square and leveled, as the sheets require a consistent mounting surface. You will need a fine-tooth saw or utility knife for trimming the sheets to size. When cleaning, avoid harsh chemical solvents or abrasive brushes; instead, use a soft cloth with mild soapy water to preserve the finish. Ensure that all edges are properly sealed with greenhouse-grade tape to prevent dust and condensation from entering the cellular channels.
