4. Collector Mounting.
- Cont.
Angle Mount Installations involve positioning the collector(s) at an angle so that the upper part of the collector is higher than the
lower in reference to the mounting surface. The “angle mounting” is used on horizontal surfaces or on roofs that slope in directions
other than south at 55 degrees.
Use the angle mounting kit (1-5060-039), see figure 8. Connect the U-channels to the roof just like in the Flush Mounting method.
Assemble the mounting clips to both U-channels utilizing the provided bolts (Fig. 7)
Screw the mounting clips to the BOTTOM part of the collector (the weep hole side) using two (2) stainless steel self-drilling
screws, each. (Fig. 10). Mounting clips may also bolt into collector frame slot using (1) 5/16 carriage bolt, nut, and washer.
