SolEmber™ Installation Instructions:

1. Solar Module frames must be free of dust, debris or any foreign particles.  Use the acetone wipes provided to prepare the frames for the SolaTrim's peel & stick adhesive.
2. When applying SolEmber, start at the corners of the array and work toward the center. Wherever possible use full length sections on the corner edges of the modules.
3. Place the SolEmber pieces against the rooftop material and mark so the top of the SolEmber panel will be near or flush to the top of the module frame.
4. Cut the SolEmber piece to fit using the CT93 shears or equivalent.
5. Dry-fit the the piece before peeling off the adhesive to check for proper fit. (Note: SolEmber panels do not need to make contact with the roof surface. Gaps of 1/8" to 1/4" are acceptable and still provide protection from intrusion.)
6. After dry-fit, peel the paper off the adhesive strip and press the SolEmber piece against the module frame.  Apply medium pressure with hands then use the J Roller to adhere the panel to the module. The J roller will ensure a secure adhesive bond. SolEmber will stay in place immediately, will reach 80% adhesion in 20 min and 100% adhesion in 24 hours.
7. If SolEmber needs to be temporarily removed, simply pull a razor knife blade down the adhesive bead between the module frame and the SolEmber panel.  Replace with a new panel.

Application Temperatures: Do NOT install when air temps exceed 105o F. (40o C.). For best results, apply between 50 - 85o F. (10 - 30o C.). Do not store below 50o F. (10o C).

About the J Roller:
The J Roller allows you to apply smooth and even pressure when installing SolEmber thus providing maximum adhesion.  Bond strength is dependent upon the amount of adhesive-to-surface-contact developed.  Firm application pressure (min.15 lbs PSI) develops better ahesive contact and helps improve bond strength.

The Trusted Name in Solar Protection
For over a decade, SolaTrim^® has been protecting rooftop solar arrays from pests, debris, and environmental damage. Now, with SolEmber™, we’re expanding that protection to defend homes and communities from wildfire risks — seamlessly, affordably, and effectively.

Studies show that up to 90% of structures destroyed in wildfires ignite from embers, not direct flames!  Embers can travel up to a mile ahead of the flames!

SolEmber™ Uses 3M VHB™ adhesive tape that allows for permanent peel-and-stick bonding without the use of rivets, screws or other mechanical fasteners. SolEmber panels use this remarkable peel-and-stick feature to make the SolEmber Panel installation quick, easy and permanent without damaging your solar panels with mechanical fasteners. Use the J Roller for a better adhesive bond. Use the Sola Wipes to prepare the frames for the SolaTrim's peel & stick adhesive.
