pipes – Important points
Step 6
Critical: Due to the high
temperature imposed by solar
heated water, all solar system
pipes and fittings must be DR
brass and copper, including
collector compression fittings
(as supplied). No plastic pipes
or fittings.
• Flow and return lines must be
installed as direct as possible
between tank and collector.
• Pipes
must
be fully insulated
with
UV stabilized insulation suitable for
solar working temperatures. We
recommend Armaflex DuoSolar /
Solar insulation, minimum 13mm
thick (refer to local regulations).
Note: Warranty will be void
if this minimum insulation
requirement is not used.
Pipes must be DR
brass and copper.
Refer to AS/NZS
3500.4.
