Solar System Installation Guide
Do not use sharp objects to open the tube boxes.
Heavy goods should not be loaded on top of the kit boxes.
Installation Guidance
Unpack and install tubes only after the manifold and pipe work has been installed and the system has been
filled with glycol and purged.
Do not leave the solar collector exposed to solar radiation when the solar loop and manifold have been drained.
Collectors left exposed in a dry state must be covered to prevent possible long term damage.
HP tubes must have a minimum elevation of 20
o
and a maximum of 70
o
All modifications to structural members to install the solar system must comply with all local state and federal
codes.
Any building materials adjacent to solar components should not be exposed to elevated temperatures.
When installed the collector and mounting frame must be rigid enough to maintain the orientation of the
collector.
Shading of the collectors should be checked by using a solar pathfinder before beginning the installation
process. If the collector is shaded excessively, then a different location should be selected to mount the
collector.
