INTRODUCTION
ABOUT YOUR FLAT PLATE SOLAR COLLECTOR
Your Flat Plate Solar Collector is designed to offer reliable hot water heating in hot, mild, or cold climates.
Flat plate solar collectors operate in open loop, closed loop, and drain back solar systems, making these
collectors ideal for a variety of installation designs.
Job site conditions will require your installation contractor to supply some or all of the following:
•
Plumbing connections
•
Piping and insulation
•
Valves between your backup water system and the solar system
PART 1 – GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
NOTE:
OBTAIN ALL APPLICABLE PERMITS BEFORE BEGINNING WORK. OBEY ALL LOCAL
CODES.
Only use this solar hot water system as intended and described in this installation manual. Any use other
than described will void warranty and may lead to fire, property damage, personal injury, or death.
Install all system components and piping in such a way that does not reduce the performance of any fire
rated assembly. Failure to do so may lead to fire, property damage, personal injury, or death.
A. METALLIC COMPONENTS
To avoid injury, always wear leather protective gloves when handling solar collector components. All
efforts have been made to make the metal components safe to handle, but there may still be some sharp
edges.
B. FLAT PLATE COLLECTORS
Be careful when handling the collectors, as they will break if dropped. When installed, collectors may
break if struck by a hard object (e.g. a branch falling on the roof).
