THIS WATER HEATER IS NOT SUITABLE FOR POOL HEATING.
SOLAR COLLECTORS
The 52L tank is suitable for installation with NPT200,
L or CSA2007 solar collectors and the 52H tank is
suitable for installation with SPA2000, NPT200, L or
CSA2007 solar collectors.
In Australia, 52H systems with NPT200, L and
SPA2000 collectors are suitable for installation in all
climate zones, whilst 52L systems with NPT200 and
L collectors are suitable for installation in climate
zones 1, 2 and 3 in areas not subject to freeze
conditions.
In Australia for climate zones 1, 2, and 3 there is a
risk that systems with CSA2007 collectors may over
perform. We recommend in climate zones 1, 2,
and 3, that CSA2007 systems with 2 or more
collectors only be installed at orientations between
60° and 90° from the equator.
In Australia in climate zone 4, systems with selective surface CSA2007 collectors provide optimum
performance compared with non-selective surface collectors, particularly in the months of lower solar radiation.
IMPORTANT NOTES
•
Working on roofs is and should always be considered a hazardous activity, particularly early in the
morning, late in the evening, when the roof is wet or during and after periods of rain.
