Operating Instructions
Operation
If the homeowner cannot get water to flow from the hot
water lines, check all shut off valves and ensure the
combined non-return/safety valve has been installed
correctly, as it has an integrated check valve. To
determine whether the GeoSpring Solar system is
working, measure the water temperature returning from
the system on a sunny day. The output temperature
should be warmer than the input temperature.
WARNING

which can be hot. Failure to follow these
