ALTERNATIVE FIXING METHOD FOR A
TILED ROOF
In the event that you are unable to use an adhesive
or support angle, nylon strapping (provided) can be
used.
When the headers are to be positioned on the roof,
you will need to remove certain roof tiles to obtain a
fixing onto the wood battons that support the roof
tiles (O).
Fix 50 cm long nylon strips on the roof support batton
every 66 cm as per step 7 on page 6. Afterwards put
the roof tiles back in place so the nylon strips stick
out 30 cm. Attach the nylon strips that stick out of
the roof around the collector. Attach 2 tie-wraps to
every nylon strip.
Nylon strapping can also be used (horizontally)
across the width of matting to secure it to the roof
structure (Q). Place straps 1 metre apart.
We highly recommend that adhesive is used where
possible in addition to the nylon straps especially in
high wind situations.
