Pre-Installation Suitability and Safety Checklist
The following outlines mandatory suitability and safety requirements for installing this solar heating system. Please
read carefully, if any of the following requirements cannot be meet the system should NOT be purchased or
installed.
For ground level collector installations the installer
MUST
check child safety fence regulations
in the relevant state.
Under no circumstances should collectors be installed so as to
compromise the effectiveness of a child pool or spa fence safety barrier by providing a
climbable object.
Building regulations vary from state to state and
MUST
override any instructions supplied in
this manual. It is the responsibility of the purchaser/installer to check that installations
comply with any relevant state laws and regulations.
At present this collector array system is
not recommended for installations in cyclonic
regions C or D,
or
on houses situated on top of hills exposed to strong winds,
or
on second
story (or higher) roofs.
Installations on tiles are for Wind Region A only.
Collectors are to be used with
chlorinated (or otherwise sanitized) pool water
ONLY
. Do not
use collectors to heat
fresh (untreated) water
due to the potential for Legionaries bacteria
build up.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Due to the potential of falling from heights, mounting panels on a roof or structure at
heights should only be undertaken by a professional installer, unless you are accustomed
to and confident of performing the work safely. We strongly recommend the installer
invests in
roof safety guard rails and a safety harness system
, especially for DIY
applications.
