POST INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before using the system make a final check. Open all the valves and check for any kind of leakage. Repeat the
inspection after 30 minutes. Check if the system is filled with water and antifreeze fluid according to the company’s
instructions. In case of any failure condition a specialized technician should be called in.
A basic periodic maintenance will assure the long life and high efficiency of the solar installation.
y
It is recommended that the appliance is inspected in situ according to the instructions stated in the guarantee
twice a year and checked for possible damage (breaking) of the collectors’ glass, leaks in the connecting piping to
the mains and to the consumption system, inspection of the pipe insulation and cleaning of the glass.
y
If the collectors’ glass is broken, it should be replaced immediately.
y
It is recommended that the glass is washed at an hour of low sunlight to avoid damages due to expansion-
contraction, due to temperature changes.
y
If the fittings are worn (screws, pugs, piping, etc), these should be replaced at the owner’s cost.
y
The level of antifreeze in the closed circuit must be checked annually (as it could need toping up), to ensure the
efficient operation.
y
In cases where there is to be no use of hot water for long periods of time (e.g. during the summer holidays), it is
recommended that the collector surface is covered with an opaque cover in order to avoid the building up of high
temperatures.
ATTENTION!
Place taps with thermostatic regulation up to 38°C for hot water use to prevent burns which may be
caused by the high temperature water in the solar installation.
