STRUCTURAL CHECK
The
“EGO”
solar collector with integrated storage can be placed on the ground or on a
structure (attic, covering, balcony, etc...) that can support the device weight and dynamic
actions caused by variable things (e.g. wind, snow,...), considered with the presence of
“EGO”
solar collector with integrated storage.
In the case of already-existing buildings in particular, all combinations
of the static capacity of the structural elements and anchors used must be carefully
evaluated, according to what is indicated in the technical standards for construction (NTC
2008, in Italy), or the Eurocodes (EN 1991, in Europe). This check must be carried out by a
structural technician who is authorised to work in the installation area.
Be very careful of the load increase caused by snow or strong wind. The manufacturer is
not responsible for damage to things or injury to people caused by bad installation on
structures that cannot support the indicated loads.
