STEP 12: PULL WIRE INTO ATTIC

STEP 14: CONNECT REDUCERS

STEP 18: SECURE ROOF SENSOR

STEP 15: INSTALL TUBING INSERTS

STEP 13: TIE SENSOR WIRE TO TUBING

STEP 11: DRILL CEILING HOLE FOR ROOF SENSOR

6: Tubing & Sensor Installation (continued)

Cut about 4’ of tubing and take it to the roof. Install 3/4” to 1/2” reducers on the collector headers at roof penetrations.

Drill a 1/4” hole about 1-1/2” –2” from the right ceiling hole. Push the two-lead roof sensor wire through. For single-

tank setups, this wire is attached to the solar controller.

Pull wire into attic. Splice wire with roof sensor, using provided wire connector. Do not strip wires. Make sure

wires are fully inserted before clamping closed.

Zip-tie the sensor cable to the tubing every 3’ to 4’ for support.

Install tubing inserts into all tubing connections. Simply push the inserts into the tubing prior to each connection with a fit-

ting. Be certain to firmly push the tubing (with insert) all the way into the fitting past the O-ring and stop against the seat.

With the insert in place, the tubing can’t collapse and will remain in tight contact with the O-ring inside the fitting.

STEP 17: CONNECT TUBING AND ELBOWS

Insert a length of tubing into reducer fitting and cut to appropriate length. Install elbow fitting. Cut tubing penetrat-

ing through roof to approximately 4” and install elbow fitting. Push down until flush with roof jack.

STEP 16: INSTALL RETAINER CLIPS

Install retainer clips on all fitting connections. The retainer clips are provided in two sizes, 1/2” and 3/4”. The clips snap in

place at each end of a fitting with the tab facing away from the fitting. These clips prevent the fitting collar from depress-

ing, which can release the tubing.

Use roof sealant to fix roof sensor to roof. Position the roof sensor out of any potential shadow. If desired, the roof

jack can be painted to match the roof.
