DrySnap specializes in helping you create a safe, comfortable outdoor space. It uses durable vinyl panels to make the area under your raised deck a weatherproof, usable area. These vinyl ceiling panels fit underneath your top deck and easily snap into place. Always calculate how many tiles you need before purchasing.
Features
The DrySnap vinyl ceiling panels offer many benefits to homeowners. For standard decks, the system comes with all the materials that you need to install these panels underneath your deck. If your joist spacing is larger than 16 inches wide, then you must also install 1-inch-by-4 inch firring strips, which you can purchase at your local home improvement store. The brackets screw directly into your existing deck joists. The panels are waterproof and protect you from inclement weather as well, since they create a roof out of your upper deck.
Specs
DrySnap panels can resist impacts up to 134.5 lbs., and they are not subject to distortion, including sagging. They can withstand wind speeds up to 90 mph even if those winds are sustained for a maximum of 5 minutes. These panels are not very glossy, so they won't reflect sunlight or lamplight. They also have a uniform color. You can install the panels in a recommended temperature range from 40 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit.
Double Your Space
According to Professional Deck Builder Online, DrySnap doubles your available outdoor living space, and it helps keep your bottom deck dry. The site also indicates that water doesn't accumulate between the joists and the ceiling panels, and airflow is constant. The site recommends this ceiling if you want a beadboard look. According to Decks.com, you can use these ceiling panels for home and light commercial applications. You can convert your bottom deck into a screened-in porch or storage area for equipment. The panels collect rain water and direct it away from your bottom deck, ensuring that your space is always dry. Decks.com also indicates that the DrySnap system is practically maintenance-free.
Warranty
You receive a 10-year warranty on your product, covering any repairs or replacement of defective panels. You must, however, register your product within 30 days to qualify for the warranty, and you must keep your proof of purchase. This is a non-transferable warranty. This means that new owners will not qualify for the warranty if you sell your home.
