General Installation Guidelines• Installing Matterhorn® Metal Roofing on top of existing

shingles is acceptable per local building requirements.

• Matterhorn Metal Roofing must be installed on a solid roof deck. Synthetic underlayment and high-temperature ice and water shield must be installed prior to the installation of the metal roofing products—refer to local building code.

• Prior to installing the underlayment, clear the roof deck of any debris or protrusions that could puncture the protective membrane. Installing roof panels on uneven surfaces may cause distortion or deflection on the metal surface. Surface wave in the material is not cause for rejection of the product.

• Inner Gable, Valley, Valley Closure, T-Style Drip Edge, Vented C-Closure, Bird Guard and Bird Stop must be installed before the panels. Sidewall Flashing, Outer Gable, Hip/Ridge Cap, Transition Flashing and Ridge Cap End Closure may also be installed before the panels.

• When cutting panels to length, always remove material so that the factory pre-formed bend remains intact to allow for proper locking to adjacent panel below.

• Always install Matterhorn® Tile panels from bottom to top, then right to left; beginning with the bottom right corner of the roof deck. Always fill one column in completely before moving to the next one.

• Be sure each panel is fully engaged to the panel below before fastening it to the deck. This may be done by using the heel of your hand.

Storage and Handling: Storage: Metal building products should be stored in a dry well ventilated space. Never cover materials with non-breathing or plastic tarps. This may cause condensation which will deteriorate the protective coating of the materials. General Handling: Carry the roofing panels on edge instead of laying flat. Be sure to wear gloves.

Foot Traffic: Wear clean, soft sole, non-marking shoes when walking on installed roofing panels. Only step in areas where the panel is in contact with the roof deck.

Safety GuidelinesFollow all governmental safety procedures, including, but not limited to, all OSHA guidelines. Always wear safety gloves, safety glasses and fall protection gear when installing Matterhorn® Metal Roofing.

Mechanically Attached Roofing Underlayment:The manufactures underlayment must include this listed technical information.

• Fully synthetic underlayment designed for use under metal roofing.

• Meet or exceeds the physical requirements of ASTM D226 & D4869

• Installed per manufacturers installation instructions.

Self-adhered Waterproofing Underlayment:Matterhorn metal roofing requirements for a self-adhered roofing underlayment. Waterproofing underlayment must resist the higher roof temperatures produced under metal roofing. Underlayment’s not designed for higher temperature applications can prematurely deteriorate, crack or not seal properly. Must include listed technical data from underlayment manufacturer.

• Withstand temperatures up to 250°F.

• Meet or exceed ASTM D1970

• Installed per manufacturers installation instructions.

VentilationProper ventilation must be achieved to avoid moisture and heat buildup in the attic space, or between the layers of the building envelope. Consult local building code for NFA (Net Free Area) rating requirements.

• Intake vs. exhaust: To achieve maximum airflow through the attic, the amount of intake at the eave must be less than or equal to the exhaust at the ridge.

• Soffit vents are found on the underside of the eave overhang. This is the primary source for the intake of air to the attic.

• Ridge vents are located at the peak of the roof and are the primary exhaust outlet for accumulated hot, moist air.

Upon completion of the installation, inspect the roof surface for metal shavings or other loose material. Remove by wiping softly with a cloth, being careful not to scratch the painted surface. Remove dirt with a damp rag, using detergent if necessary.

MaintenanceRemove any and all debris that may accumulate on the roof during its lifespan to keep it moisture free. Tighten any loose fasteners or trim pieces as access allows. Do not attempt to repair or replace any parts of the Matterhorn roof system without consulting a certified applicator. Repainting the roof should not be necessary through the duration of the warranty.

Hip and Ridge Detail(s): Hip and ridge capping can be installed before the roof panels to prevent walking on the finished roof. For vented ridges, the vented C-Closure is fastened to the deck every 12” with panhead screws. For unvented hips or ridges the inner gable is installed with panhead screw every 12”. Be sure the inner gable or vented c-closure are properly spaced to engage the hem of the hip/ridge cap. When overlapping the cap sections, be sure to maintain the correct spacing end to end by nesting the ridge cap together. A shorter flange on the ridge cap can be achieved by moving the closures closer together.

For a 130 MPH wind rating, fasten cap to the tile through the closure with color matched screws at every barrel top.

There are a lot of options for snow guards in the market. What will follow in this installation guide is one possible solution using Sno Gem® snow guards. Sno Gem has recommended two options of snow guards per profile for Matterhorn metal roofing. The clear plastic snow guards depicted in this installation guide can be acquired from Quality Edge and all the steel or color coordinated snow guards can be acquired direct from Sno Gem.

Snow stops are most often installed on eave edges over areas of concern like walk ways, parking areas, gutters, garage entrances, shrubberies and entryways. Some less common locations to mount snow guards are pipe vent penetrations, above mechanical units or anything that added weight or falling snow could damage. If you have no experience or are questioning your judgment on the placement of snow guards it is recommended that you work with Sno Gem on placement locations. The drawings, placement on the panel and mounting methods in this guide are derived from the recommendations of Sno Gem.

Below are frequently asked questions about snow guards provided by Sno Gem®

Why is rooftop snow retention important? Snow often accumulates on a sloped roof. When temperatures go above freezing, the snow accumulation melts. Without snow guards, the result can be dangerous as the built up snow and ice slides and falls to the ground, and that extraordinarily heavy amount of snow could fall onto a person. The weight of the snow can also easily damage the building as well as the adjoining landscape. Sno Gem Snow Guards reduce the dangers associated with rooftop snow.

How do snow guards work? Once snow is on a roof, heat generated through the roof or from rising exterior temperature melts the snow. The melting process often creates a thin layer of water between the snow and the roof. The water forms a slippery path that the snow and ice follow down, often in one large chunk. Properly placed and attached, Sno Gem snow guards will reduce the potential for cascading snow. Instead of falling off in an avalanche, the snow and ice often drops off in small amounts or melts completely. Also, Sno Gem Snow Guards can help to more evenly distribute the weight of snow and ice on a roof.

What Rooftop pattern will my snow guard placement follow? The correct choice and snow guard placement of the Sno Gems is critical. When you are planning your installation, Sno Gem representatives will work with you to design the most efficient system.

What type of SNO GEM snow guards do I need? In the case of Matterhorn metal roofing Sno Gem has determined the right snow guards for slate, shake, tile and standing seam. Slate and shake profiles can use the Junior Polycarbonate or steel Half Carat with tab. Tile can use the Junior Polycarbonate or the Original metal with tab. The standing seam can use the Junior Polycarbonate or the 2” iClad clamp to seam bar/fence snow retention system.

Can Sno Gem guards match the color of my roof? Sno Gem Snow Guards can be manufactured in standard metal roof colors. We also offer an unlimited amount of custom colors to meet architectural requirements.

Plastic: Tile Snow GuardsUsing 2 Stainless Fasteners, 2” Wide Junior Polycarbonate Snow Guard. The clear Jr snow guard can be ordered from Quality Edge or you can buy direct from Sno Gem, Their part number is (SNO-GEM JR RAW NO 3M Tape).

Installation Instructions are provided by Sno Gem, Inc.

Introduction:The following installation instructions are provided solely to assist installers. Sno Gem, Inc. recommends that these products be installed by a qualified roofing contractor who will have the knowledge and ability to properly install the product. It is also strongly recommended that adhesive installation be limited to smooth panels to ensure maximum bonding. Sno Gem, Inc. does not take any responsibility for acts, errors or omissions of the installer and cannot be held responsible for product installation. Check with local building code officials for requirements in your area.

Installation Products:Sno Gem, Inc. recommends and offers the following products in order to provide the most effective installation of the Sno Gem® products. Sno Gem, Inc. cannot be liable for the effectiveness of any products used by the installer which have not been purchased directly from Sno Gem®.• Isopropyl Metal Panel Cleaner• Stainless Fasteners with Neoprene Gasket Washers• SB-190 Tube Adhesive SealantThese recommendations are based on test believed to be reliable. Please note that installation using an adhesive product should be performed in accordance with the adhesive manufacturer’s published instructions. Sno Gem, Inc. does not warrant against adhesive failure and the purchaser must rely on the adhesive manufacturer’s applicable warranty, if any.

Installation Instructions:

1. Measure and mark the distance from the eave where the Sno Gem® snow guard is to be installed. Using isopropyl metal panel cleaner, thoroughly clean that area. Before proceeding, make sure the panel is completely dry and free from dirt.

2. Spread and adequate amount of SB-190 Adhesive Sealant evenly across the entire bottom of the snow guard base with a notched adhesive spreader tool ensuring there are no voids, which will cause air pockets if not spread properly.

3. Place the snow guard in position on the roof panel surface, applying firm, even pressure perpendicular to the roof surface to best ensure there are no air pockets.

4. Install each fastener along with a neoprene gasket washer using the pre tapped pilot holes on the snow guard’s base as a guide.

5. Apply a continuous bead of SB-190 sealant around the entire perimeter (all 4 sides) sides of the snow guard base and over all screw heads. Smooth the sealant around the edge of the snow guard to create a clean and water tight seal. Failure to perform this step could result in water infiltration between the snow guard and the roof panel and a weakening of the adhesive bond. The sealant application will require regular and ongoing maintenance to remain effective.

6. SB-190 requires a 28 day period at 50 degrees (F) or higher to fully cure and for the best results in adhesion (90% strength is achieved at 12-14 days at 50 degrees (F) or above).

7. 6. Repeat steps 1-5 for each snow guard. Be sure to follow the Architect’s and/or Engineer’s required spacing and/or layout, including their adjustments for field conditions, if any (a recommended layout is furnished by Sno Gem, Inc. only upon written request).

Warranty:Sno Gem, Inc. does not provide any warranty on the installation of the products. Sno Gem, Inc. will not be responsible of misapplication of the product, incorrect materials or defects that were obvious at the time of installation. Any warranty claim shall be limited to Sno Gem’s cost of material on the product determined to have a manufacturer’s defect and in no event will Sno Gem, Inc. be liable for any damage, schedule delays or additional labor.
