Panel Repair:
1. If a tube in a panel is nicked, cut or damaged in any way so that the tube leaks the panel may be repaired.
2. With a sharp utility knife carefully cut away approximately 12" of the damaged tube at each end of the
tube where it connects with the rubber hub of the End Pipe. Do not cut away the hub.
3. Screw a #10 stainless steel sheet metal screw into the hub at each end. Do not over tighten. This will seal
off that specific tube. Water will no longer flow through it, but the rest of the panel will still work well.
4. If the #10 screw strips out over time, try a #12 screw in its place, as this will usually work to extend the life
of the repair.
5. When the repair no longer works or if multiple tubes are damaged, the complete half panel may be
easily removed and replaced with a new half panel. The twist-connect panels were specifically designed
to allow easy removal and installation of a new panel.
