Overall Details

Recommend painting and labeling pad ($200) as well as uv mesh ($50).



Yes, the equipment pad does have a thinning layer of UV protectant paint, and it is due to be re-painted and / or have a UV shade device ($50+) placed over the top / sides of equipment pad to help ensure long PVC piping life AS WELL AS 2x+ or more equipment life., The equipment appears to be in direct sunlight a large portion of the day. By simply covering the equipment with a UV mesh shade ($25-55 on Amazon + Installation) you will see approx 3x equipment life and 3x less equipment breakdown. This is recommended here.
