Collectors installation position<br />

<strong>solar</strong> <strong>collectors</strong> should be installed in the roof slope facing south. In real life it is not always possible.<br />

deviations of 45 degrees facing east or west, will reduce performance by approximately 10%.<br />

Collectors installation pitch<br />

Collector’s <strong>solar</strong> radiation absorption<br />

efficiency depends on the collector’s<br />

inclination in the roof slope.<br />

The most effective <strong>solar</strong> energy<br />

absorption conditions are found when<br />

<strong>solar</strong> rays operate perpendicular to the<br />

collector’s pane surface.<br />

Because of the changes of sun’s rays<br />

operation angle in connection with<br />

day’s time and the seasons of the year,<br />

recommended installation angle is<br />

30° – 60°.<br />
