Is there a way to prevent
ceiling panels from sagging?
Excessive heat and humidity are major causes of sag in ceiling
panels. To prevent sag, use CGC ClimaPlus™ ceiling panels and
maintain conditions up to 104° F (40° C)/100% relative humidity in
a space.
Can sag-resistant ceiling
panels be installed before the building is enclosed?
Although the recommended environmental conditions will be met in
many instances, it is still not recommended to install ceiling
panels before a building is closed in. Changing weather conditions
can damage panels and the suspension system, causing rust,
corrosion, sag, or warpage.
Is there a warranty
on CGC sag-resistant panels?
ClimaPlus™ Ultra panels and tiles, when used with CGC DONN
Brand grid, carry a lifetime (30-year) warranty against sagging,
warping, or shrinking.
