1. If the room is packaged for LTL shipping, make sure you receive all the boxes. A total box count can be found on the dill of lading. Note any missing pieces on the bill of lading. Take pictures of the load upon arrival.
2. Inspect the material for damage. Note any damaged boxes or parts on the bill of lading. Note that the foam packaging is designed to sustain some abuse during transport. Although the packaging may be damaged, the material inside may be intact.
3. If you do not plan on immediately installing the room, remove some of the packaging for ventilation. See the packing stickers for important maintenance and storage information.
4. When unloading, organize all similar materials together. Place them in a readily accessible area so you can easily select the appropriate materials needed for each step of the installation process.
5. Inventory all the materials that have arrived. You can refer to the C-Thru layout and cut list for the room. These documents should arrive with your room and will give important information about the particular room being installed. The information includes room dimensions, extrusion cut sizes, and module locations. Keep these documents accessible during all steps of the installation process.
6. The room materials should be placed outside the perimeter of where the room is being built.
7. Be sure to place the material in a hazard-free area, as damage on the job site is not covered under warranty and is subject to replacement costs.
8. Window inserts are shipped separate from the modules. Inventory them to make sure you have the right number of inserts and screen, and that they are the right size(s).
9. In the unlikely event of an error or missing pieces, contact C-Thru as soon as possible. Every effort will be made to expedite replacement parts to help avoid job shutdowns.
10. Figure 3.1 is an example of a job site in which the materials have been separated, organized and ready for installation.
