Type 2: Steel roofs, decra and

1:
The roof needs a slope of min. 5°. Find the spot pointing south (e.g. with a compass) where the collector
shall be placed and that fits with the desired location for the air inlet to the house.
Note:
The roof stands
need to be fixed to a bar or rafter, in order to get the needed stability. Beware of electrical installations like
cords from lamps and the like. The SolarVenti air collector can be mounted either horizontally or follow the
roof slope.
2: Roof flashing
Use a hole saw or similar - 140 mm – to make the hole
.
Predrill using an extra-long 8 mm drill through the
insulation beneath the roof and the possible roofing underlay in the middle of the 140 mm hole, you just
made in the roof surface. The hole must go all the way down through the ceiling (
NOTE:
Beware of
electrical installations like cords from lamps and the like).
Pull the plastic cover of the roof flashing (A) and put some SabetoFIX glue (G) inside the white tape frame
as an extra security (
NOTE:
Don’t use it all).
Note:
You have approx. 3-5 min. to fix the roof flashing (A) to
the roof, when the plastic cover is removed.
Put the roof flashing (A) on top of the hole and press it down so it fits securely on the roof. On wavy decra
and steel roofs you have to be aware that the foil of the roof flashing always ends on a descending wave, so
the water can’t run under the roof flashing. If it does not end there naturally, you can use a utility knife, to
make it fit.
Put SabetoFIX glue (G) around the roof flashing (A) (Note: There should be a little left). Put some water on
your finger and smear it around and make sure that the roof installation is water secure.
Use a screwdriver to make a hole for the wire in the roof flashing (A) near the 125mm pipe connection.
