Roof Requirements

Refer to the diagram and table below and confirm the roof

requirements before installation.

IMPORTANT

● Do not remove the protection film until the system is to be

commissioned.

● With due regard to the complete weight of the solar

collector system, (refer to technical data) ensure the

roof rafters and battens are in good condition and have

sufficient load carrying capacity and the battens are

secure.

● If you are using the existing roof battens for fixing, ensure

that they are secured at each rafter.

9.1 Installation

NOTE: Ensure adequate provision has been made for the

flow and return pipes to enter/exit the roof space, dependant

on their location. The preferred hydraulic scheme will

determine their location, refer to Section 3.

Refer to diagram 9.1 and check the contents of the kits prior

to commencing work on the roof.

Based on the dimensions, above, remove the roof covering.

Fix the lower flashing support batten, see diagram 9.2.

Position the left lower flashing onto the roof batten and secure

with six securing screws (no.1), with Torx bit supplied, see
