8. Mounting the Solar Panels

Using eco-SPARK Mounts.

- Cont.

The track of the bottom S Roof Mounting Pad set is very useful. Notice the graphic marks. These marks are here to assist you in

determining how to position the mount during installation. Each symbol refers to a possible weather condition: “snowflake” for

cold and “heat waves” for hot.

As you know, the collector expands and contracts in correlation to the weather conditions. When it’s hot outside, the collector is

longer and when it’s cold, the collector is shorter.

While installing the S Roof Mounting Pad, the installer should consider the current ambient temperature and position the slider over

the track (and grid) so that it is closer to the icon that best defines the weather. This will allow enough room for the system to expand

and contract as needed.
