piping system of the solar circuit in
compliance with local regulations.
Connection of the solar system to a
new or existing lightning protection or
the provision of local grounding should
only be carried out by a licensed

Applicability
Vitosol solar collectors are designed
for use in closed loop heating systems
for domestic hot water heating, space
heating and pool heating via a heat
exchanger. The use of Viessmann
heat transfer medium “Tyfocor-HTL”
is strongly recommended.
Pool water or potable water cannot be
pumped directly through the Vitosol
collectors. Damage to collectors caused
by corrosion or scaling will void
warranty.

Observe maximum load and distance
from edge before installing the
substructure to the roof. If necessary,
consult with a structural engineer to
determine if the structure is suitable
for installing solar collectors. The
collectors must be securely mounted
so that the mountings can withstand
intense wind conditions and local
snow loads.
CAUTION
Gloves and eye protection must be
worn when handling solar panels.
CAUTION
Solar panel connection pipes and
solar heating fluid can become hot
enough to cause severe burns.
Extreme caution must be taken if
panels have been in a stagnant
condition (no flow of fluid).
CAUTION
Avoid scratching or sudden shocks to
glass cover of the solar panel.
CAUTION
Never step on collectors or solder in
close proximity to the glass surface
of the solar panel.
