Brasco does not recommend that you store your order outside without taking necessary steps to protect the crates. Wooden crates are not weatherproof and should not be stored outdoors without adequate protection from the elements. Glass panels are generally shipped horizontally on skids, making it possible for rainwater to puddle and not adequately run off. This may prevent glass from drying promptly, enabling the acidity of rainwater to etch the glass leaving a foggy appearance. This etching is difficult to impossible to remove. Please see our delivery protocol acknowledgment HERE for additional information.
Additionally, depending on your glazing option(s) your order may ship with a protective film on the glazing. This must be immediately removed upon receipt of your order to prevent the film from permanently bonding to the glazing.
Orders with solar components should be stored indoors. All sealed lead acid batteries will self-discharge in storage. Batteries should be stored at a recommended 68 degrees Fahrenheit for maximum shelf life.
