3.11 Stiff middle bars
In certain cases it may be advisable to anchor the collector rows together in order to solidify the
entirety of the collector structure. The use of stiff middle bars is then recommended.
3.12 Joining to the ventilation unit
The Luba
GL collector system is joined to the existing ventilation by a duct that is either thermally
insulated or painted black and joins the collectors to the unit. The required components for proper
operation of the system are:
•
A fresh solar air damper;
•
A bypass damper ;
•
Two (2) modutating motors;
•
A temperature sensor for the duct (T).

The solar and bypass dampers are joined to each other with cross-links or by automated controls.
The dampers are operated by the temperature sensor located in the fresh air intake duct.
