Installation Manual

POTABLE WATER PIPING 

The design and installation of the Phoenix Solar Water Heating System should be done by qualified
individuals. It is important that good design and installation practice be followed to assure that your
system will operate properly. Failure to follow installation guidelines for your Phoenix Solar Water
Heater System could cause component failure and possible safety issues. 

It is mandatory that all plumbing be done in accordance with all local and state codes or warranty
will be void. It Is also necessary on all mechanical connections to use both thread tape and pipe
dope. The potable water piping is located on the side of your Phoenix Solar Water Heater and
marked Hot and Cold. It is recommend that unions or flexible copper connectors be used so heater
can be easily serviced. Install a shut-off valve in the cold feed near the Phoenix Solar Water Heater
to isolated the tank for future service. 

Provide clear access to the storage tank, pump, expansion tank, mixing valve, time clock and other
key components. The components on the potable side of the system may require future service or
maintenance, so it is recommended that the connections be made with brass unions. You must use

n

WARNING

Many heat transfer fluids are classified as toxic. Do not introduce heat transfer fluids
into any fittings on the heater except those clearly marked for that purpose.

Location: 

• Sufficient room to service water heater 
• Provisions made to protect area from

water damage 

• Centrally located to fixtures 
• Protected from freezing temperatures 
• Area free of flammable vapors 

Potable Water Supply: 

• All related piping is free from leaks. 
• Thermal Expansion tank installed 
• Water heater and fixtures have been

properly purged of air. 

Relief Valve: 

• Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve

properly installed and discharge line
runs to open drain. 

• Discharge line is not exposed to freezing

temperatures. 

• Discharge line is constructed of copper. 

Solar Heat Exchanger to Solar Panel: 

• Anti-Freeze if required, is added and is

rated as non-toxic with copy of MSDS
sheet for homeowner. 

• Solar Heat Exchanger is completely

purged of air. 

• Expansion tank and pressure

temperature gauge are operating
properly. 

• Solar control shows circulators

operating properly on the solar panels. 

Phoenix Heat Exchanger: 

• Heat Exchanger is completely purged of

air. 

• Expansion tank and pressure

temperature gauge are operating
properly. 

• Control is operating circulator for the

back-up heat exchanger. 

Anti-Freeze Fluid:

• Make sure freeze protection fluids are

certified as non-toxic.

• Glycol percentage must be calculated

per local area freeze level.

• Provide glycol MSDS sheet to end user.
