Lead time, testing and warranty
Fabrication in as little as 3–4 weeks (about 6–8 weeks including drafting), shipped nationwide. Sure-Panel's ACM rainscreen system has been independently tested since 2008 (AAMA 508-07). In testing by Braun Intertec, the system met the requirements of AAMA 508-07 for static air infiltration (ASTM E283), water penetration (ASTM E331) and structural performance (ASTM E330); the report is available on request. Finish warranty follows the ACM manufacturer's warranty; Linetec post-paint finishes carry a 20-year finish warranty; Sure-Panel fabrication carries a 1-year warranty.
For fire performance, Sure-Panel fabricates FR-core ACM from major manufacturers (Alucobond, Alfrex, Reynobond, Etalbond and ALPOLIC). Refer to the panel manufacturer's fire data and code compliance documentation.
