NOTE:
When gluing the (2-1410-005) CPVC pipe connectors, it is necessary to use good quality
“multi-purpose” cement.
When you need to install panels over an obstruction larger than 6’ wide, or if the obstruction is less than 1’ from a panel
header, you’ll need a row spacer kit to circumvent the obstruction.

Connect (4) of the (2-1410-005) pipe connectors to the headers of the collectors to be connected with a (2-1410-004)
plastic panel clamp using the same procedures outlined in the section on connecting solar collectors together on
page 12.
Cut two lengths of 1-½” CPVC pipe long enough to cement the (2-1410-005) pipe connectors on each collector to
each other.
Cement the PVC pipe to the pipe connectors as shown in Fig. 10.1.
If the distance between the collectors is over 4’, a 2” pipe clamp should be used on both pipes to prevent sagging.
