COMPONENT LIFE EXPECTANCY - Installed and maintained properly, your Solene Solar Hot Water Heating System should
provide many years of trouble free, uninterrupted service. The main component of the system, the Aurora Solar Collector, is designed
to last 25 to 30 years. Solar Storage Tanks have a life expectancy anywhere from 10 to 20 years depending greatly upon regional
water quality. (Replacing the internal sacricial anode rod from time to time can extend Tank life.) Dierential Control and Circulation
Pump life expectancies run from 5 to 10 years. As electrical components, they are susceptible to lightning strikes or electrical surges.
Valve life expectancy varies greatly depending water quality and usage.

Caution - SAFETY COMES FIRST!
There is no substitute for safety. Always exercise extreme caution, care, and good judgment when working on or
around a roof.
BEFORE YOU START YOUR INSTALLATION, HERE ARE A FEW IMPORTANT TIPS:
Check with your local building department to determine permitting and code requirements in your area.
While this manual explains how to install Solene solar collectors properly in typical situations, it cannot possibly
address all the unique or individual circumstances possible. If you have any installation questions, contact your
Solene representative for assistance.
Before starting any work, determine the location of your system and prepare a schematic drawing of the
installation area. Roof areas often times look bigger than they really are, so be sure to measure the available area
before making your schematic.
Familiarize yourself with all of the Solene components and plumbing materials that you will need to complete the
installation.
Don’t take shortcuts. Whenever possible, panels should be installed so they are accessible and away from roof
edges.
Depending upon your specific job, you will need various plumbing items and materials. Be sure to use quality
products that will withstand direct sunlight year after year.
• Please take care to avoid hazards such as overhead electrical wires or loose shingles.
• Be sure to secure ladders so they will not slip or fall.
• Do not allow extension cords to lie in standing water.
• Wear shoes with proper tread to prevent slipping on the ladder or sloped roof areas.
• Disconnect all power to any energized equipment when installing dierential control system.
NOTE: As the installer, you are responsible for exercising good judgment when installing Solene systems to
protect the long term integrity of the collectors as well as the mounting surfaces.
THE CLOSED LOOP SYSTEM - A closed loop system design is common in northern climates, where freezing weather more
frequently occurs. An FDA-approved heat transfer uid solution circulates through the collector, and a heat exchanger transfers the
heat from the solution to the water in the storage tank. A dierential controller controls when uid is pumped through the collector
and back to the heat exchanger by sensing the temperature dierence between the collector and the tank.
Flood grade propylene glycol is mixed with water and used as the heat transfer uid as it freezes at a much lower temperature than
water which eliminates freeze damage.

SIZING & ORIENTATION: The vast majority of Solar Domestic Hot Water (SDHW) systems are comprised of “Medium
Temperature” solar collectors manufactured using tempered glass and some type of metal absorber plate. They differ
from “Low Temperature” systems predominantly utilized in swimming pool heating applications. These systems are
typically manufactured using plastic resins. “High Temperature” systems are utilized to generate steam for industrial
applications. Solene collectors belong to the “Medium Temperature” category.
Normally, only one or two Solene collectors are needed for a SDHW system. The number of collectors is determined not
only by the amount of water that is needed, but also by the latitude of the installation and the collector’s orientation.
The following table details Solene’s recommended minimum system sizing guide for a typical installation:

Normally, collectors are installed on roofs, as close as possible to the tank, to minimize heat loss through the pipe. The pipes between
the tank and the collectors MUST be insulated with at least ¾” thick insulation, for the same reason. Check local codes for well
thickness in your area.
The solar collectors must be located in a structurally sound area of the roof that will be exposed to the sun for the majority of the day,
all year round. A solar pathnder can be used for solar site analysis.
The recommended angle of the collectors is equal to the location’s LATITUDE. This angle is designed to maximize solar absorption
annually. For increased energy production in winter months, the collector angle can be increased up to +15 degrees from latitude.
For increased summer energy production, decrease collector angle up to - 15 degrees from latitude. A variation of +/- 15 degrees is
acceptable.Theorientationofthecollectorsmustbeduesouth±55degrees.Flush mounts onavailableroofslopesarerecommended
to allow convenience and cost eectiveness, since these variations from the exact angle and orientation will aect the system’s

INSTALLATION MANUAL SOLENE®HOT WATER SYSTEMS

There are three basic roof-mounting methods:
FLUSH MOUNT INSTALLATION - Parallel to the roof line, as illustrated below.
Fig. 2Fig. 1A
Start from the bottom. When elevating the collector to the roof, make sure that the “weep holes” are facing down. It is
recommended to install the collectors vertically (length up the roof’s slope), but the collectors may be installed horizontally as
well.
Flush Mount Installations are recommended when the roof’s slope conforms to the orientation and slope requirements as stated
previously. This is the easiest and most aesthetically pleasing installation method. After the collector(s) are installed, it should
resemble a skylight. The ush mount (1-5060-031) consists of four (4) mounting brackets, four (4) carriage bolts, four (4) nuts, and
associated hardware. There are two sets each for the top and bottom.
Once the collector’s location is determined, anchor two (2) ush mount brackets to the roof using two (2) stainless steel 3/8”
lag bolts for each bracket. Each bolt should be sealed using an appropriate roof sealant in order to prevent any possible leaks
from penetrating the roof members. The ush mount brackets should be spaced so the lag bolts penetrate the roof trusses. The
collectors will rest on top of the ush mount brackets. (Fig. 2)
Verify a secure connection to the trusses. If lagging directly into the roof trusses is not possible, secure a 2’ x 4’ wood beam
perpendicular to the trusses, inside the attic, and anchor the bolts to this member. Again, verify a secure connection into the new
member.
Connect the ush mount brackets to the collector’s frame by stainless steel self-drilling screws or bolt mounting bracket into
frame slot using (1) 5/16” carriage bolt, nut, and washer.
Repeat steps 1-4 for the top. That’s it. The collector is anchored.

Start from the bottom. When elevating the collector to the roof, make sure that the “weep holes” are facing down. It is
recommended to install the collectors vertically (length up the roof’s slope), but the collectors may be installed horizontally as

Flush Mount Installations are recommended when the roof’s slope conforms to the orientation and slope requirements as stated
previously. This is the easiest and most aesthetically pleasing installation method. After the collector(s) are installed, it should
resemble a skylight. The ush mount gripper (1-5060-030) consists of four (4) U-channels four (4) grippers, four (4) strut nuts with
springs, and associated hardware. There are two sets each for the top and bottom.
Once the collector’s location is determined, anchor two (2) U-channel to the roof using two (2) stainless steel 3/8” lag bolts
for each U-channel. Each bolt should be sealed using an appropriate roof sealant in order to prevent any possible leaks from
penetrating the roof members. The U-channel should be spaced so the lag bolts penetrate the roof trusses, and the U-channel
should run parallel to the truss. The collectors will rest on top of the U-channel. (Fig. 2)

Angle Mount Installations involve positioning the collector(s) at an angle so that the upper part of the collector is higher than the
lower in reference to the mounting surface. The “angle mounting” is used on horizontal surfaces or on roofs that slope in directions
other than south at 55 degrees.
Use the angle mounting kit (1-5060-039), see gure 8. Connect the U-channels to the roof just like in the Flush Mounting method.
Assemble the mounting clips to both U-channels utilizing the provided bolts (Fig. 7)
Screw the mounting clips to the BOTTOM part of the collector (the weep hole side) using two (2) stainless steel self-drilling
screws, each. (Fig. 10). Mounting clips may also bolt into collector frame slot using (1) 5/16 carriage bolt, nut, and washer.
