Insulate any source pipe, including the one in the roof gland. Do not insulate pipes above the roof.
Insulate with the following insulation properties:
•
Vapour-tight
•
19mm thick
•
Minimum thermal conductivity 0.033 W/(mK)
For fixing the piping to the wall, the following support is recommended to prevent cold bridges:

Micro air bubble separator
Installing a micro air bubble separator removes all air bubbles in your installation. Air bubbles limit
the heat exchange capacity of the panels.
A micro air bubble separator must be installed in the main return line of the panel field. This is the
pipe with the highest temperature. The warmer the liquid, the less air can be dissolved in it, the
more the air will go with the liquid flow in the form of micro-bubbles.
