Panel: Valley width less than 16 inches.
Pitch: 1/2/12 to 2/12 pitch.
Use: 1 snow guard per valley every 15 feet of roof.
Snow load: Up to 45 PSF ground snow load.

Starting at 1 foot from the bottom edge, place a snow guard in the center of each valley, in a staggered pattern, across the entire roof area. Go up the roof 15 feet and repeat the staggered pattern of guards in the center of every valley. Do not exceed 15 feet vertically between rows of guards. For Example: if your roof sheets are 26 feet long, your roof would require a row at 1 foot from the bottom and at 13 feet up from the bottom. When possible, always attempt to divide the roof areas into equal sections, with equal distance between rows, without exceeding the manufacturer maximum placement guidelines.

Panel: Valley width between 16 inches and 24 inches.
Pitch: 1/2/12 to 2/12 pitch.
Use: 2 snow guards per valley every 15 feet of roof.
Snow load: Up to 45 PSF ground snow load.

Starting at 1 foot from the bottom edge, place 2 snow guards equally spaced apart in the valley, in a staggered pattern, across the entire roof area. Go up the roof 15 feet and repeat the staggered pattern of guards in every valley as placed below. Do not exceed 15 feet vertically between rows of guards. For Example: if your roof sheets are 26 feet long, your roof would require a row at 1 foot from the bottom and at 13 feet up from the bottom. When possible, always attempt to divide the roof areas into equal sections, with equal distance between rows, without exceeding the manufacturer maximum placement guidelines.
