It is critical to the performance and longevity of the system that the following requirements be met:
The centermost Panel in a bank should be "Fix-Mounted" so that the rest of the bank moves about the
centermost Panel (Fix-Mounted Panel may be located elsewhere if governed by another factor)
Each Panel is mounted and spaced to allow for thermal expansion and contraction
Strap Anchors must be centered between Panels when system is running at operating temperatures
The system must be capable of draining (if not, manual drain valves should be installed and annual
winterization records must be kept)
All plumbing in the system must hold under pressure without leaking
All plumbing in the system utilizes a standard method to allow for thermal movement
If used, all Flexible PVC lines are thoroughly protected from UV exposure by paint, wrapping, or other
method
Non-draining plumbing is able to be manually drained
There must be a VRV installed at the highest elevation in the plumbing for each major roof line/pitch
All panels installed on a barrel tile, flat tile or standing seam metal roof have full-length substrates fully
protecting each panel from abrasion and uneven contours
