HVAC screen design

The objectives were:

1. Solar shading as required by the manufacturer
2. Open ventilation as required for any outdoors condenser unit
3. Rain water drainage to protect the material
4. Easy and cheap to build as a DIY project
5. Removable for access, cleaning and maintenance
6. Attractive appearance

Here's the current design with June sun. It'll probably be redwood.
