Installing a 16" snap loc panel on this house. Not sure how to handle this and would really like to get it right the first time. I have a plan but I'm not real fond of it because of my limited experience with metal. We aren't in snow country but we are susceptible to a foot or so on occasion. Should I do something other than metal or do I need to have a pan soldered at my local tinner?

I've always went around making pans, but I do like the simplicity of that. I'll get a couple practice pieces and see if I can hack it. Otherwise, I'll be putting in another slope. Thanks for the input.

Robert Said: Break it to go up the wall then crimp it as you fold toward the pitch flatten the crimp as needed to the pitch might even find something a little softer for the dead valley as they due sell softer grades for bending
This is what I would do, with a minimum of 10in bent up the wall.

Thats what I originally wanted to do, with rubber. My supplier sold the job though, and they would prefer to stay metal. I might say tough titties, listen to your roofer.

Pull the siding. Add slope and put rubber in there. Or a pan if you'd like
