After  the  expiry  of  the  guarantee  period,  if  the  magnesium 
anode rod is worn out, the anode rod shall be replaced by a 
new  one  in  accordance  with  the  instructions  in  the  users’ 
manual.

4. SITING

Correct siting is critical for the effective operating of a solar water heater, the following 
being important guidelines:-

l

   Orientate the principal axis of the units in a North/South direction, with the collector 

facing the equator. This orientation is important to maximise sun exposure on the 
collector as it tracks on its East /West axis throughout the day.

0

l

   Tilt at approx 15 . This is important as it optimises irradiation and also assists in the 

thermosyphon process. Heater units should never be laid flat.

l

   Avoid any shade, especially between 10am and 4pm. Shade hugely reduces system 

efficiency.

Preferably, solar panels should be installed on roofs where solar irradiation is highest and 
they are also less exposed to damage. If this is not possible a protected ground sitting is 
acceptable.
