Wave roof attachment

#SRM20014 & #SRM20015

The wave roof attachment is for parallel and inclined
mounting on corrugated cement roofs. The wave roof
attachment is screwed to the load-bearing wooden frame
using mounting screws and then sealed with caulk. The
horizontal bars are then screwed to the angle bracket that has
been bolted to the wave roof attachment.

Roof Attachment Installation

(continued)

• Various sizes: Profile 5

corrugations per meter; profile 8

corrugations per meter.

The wood screws must be screwed

into a member capable of bearing

the required static load (generally

rafters). Longer wood screws are

necessary if the roof construction

is higher (e.g. roof insulation).

Unpacking and checking parts

When unpacking the system, check the model names of the
components of each system and check to be sure you have the
correct number of parts (see FIG. 3-34).

Install wave roof attachment

1. Determine roof type. Inspect the structural integrity of

the roof and the durability of the roof materials.

2. Determine the number of collectors needed for the

installation and the number of required roof attachments

from Table 3B or 3C on page 11.

3. Determine collector connection points (spacing).

Measure the spacing of the rafters or trusses to confirm

the dimensions and prepare for the system layout

(reference the Roof Attachment Spacing Section on

page

12).

4. Using the wave roof attachment as a template, place the

wave roof attachment on the roof and pre-drill a 6 mm

hole as shown in FIG. 3-35.

5. Caulk (field supplied) inside the 6 mm hole pre-drilled

in Step 4 (FIG. 3-35).

6. Place the wave roof attachment, angle bracket and

washer over the 6 mm hole on the roof (FIG. 3-36).

Insert the screw through the washer and angle bracket

into the 6 mm hole securing the wave roof attachment to

the roof (caulk around screws before tightening)

(FIG.

3-35).
