Step One: Outlet Header Bracket Location
Determine the position of the last Outlet Header Hold-Down Bracket for the row of collectors. Mark this point on
the roof. The Collector Outlet Headers will be located 1” (25mm) below this mark.
Using this point, snap a chalk line to the opposite end of the row.
Slope this line down the roof toward the
inlet a minimum of 1/8” per foot.
