Clean substrate surfaces thoroughly prior to installation to eliminate any objects that could interfere with the Panel system or puncture the panel system. B. Prepare surfaces using the methods recommended by the manufacturer for achieving the best result for the substrate under the project conditions. 3.3 INSTALLATION A. Install in accordance with manufacturer's instructions and approved shop drawings. B. For pedestal mounted systems,the recommended sequence of installation for the Panel system is to locate and install the manifolds and send and return piping, PRESSURE TEST TO MANUFACTURERS SPECIFICATIONS. Once a manifold is installed and connected to the main supply and return piping, isolate the expansion tank by closing the shut off valve to it, and pressure test the manifold and main piping system to 30 psi prior to the installation of the heat exchange panels. Pressure test the expansion tank to make sure that it is sealed and at the proper pressure for the system to the manufacturers specifications. Open the system valve to the expansion tank after it passes the pressure test. RECEIVED 01/18/2022 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT Once the main send and return system passes the pressure test, set the system pressure to the maximum pressure marked on the heat exchange Panels.As each row of Panels is installed, it should be hooked up to the manifold and pressurized. While the next row of panels is prepared,the paver/ pedestal installer shall set the pavers and prepare the next row of pedestals.As each zone is completed, move to the next manifold and follow the same procedure until all Panels are installed. Pavers or finish surface should be installed as soon after pressurization as possible. Whenever possible, keep Panels pressurized during installation of Pavers or finish surfaces. When pressurizing with air, some fluctuation of pressure (approximately+/- 10%) is normal as the Panels will expand when placed under pressure. C. Installation training videos are available at www.therma-hexx.com D. Fill the system with water, pressure test to the stated maximum pressure as marked on the Panels and purge before filling with glycol mixture. Make sure that the expansion tank is NOT isolated from the system.After successfully testing with water, blow the water out of system with compressed air and replace with the appropriate glycol mixture. E. Never keep the system isolated from the expansion tank when fluids are in the system. Over expansion of the Panels and bursting can occur on warm days when the fluid will expand in the system. F. For ground mounted systems, apply 1 inch of bedding sand or stone dust to the top of the modular heat exchange panels making sure to fill the gaps between the Panels with sand, screed the sand to the appropriate thickness and level, apply the paver or stone surface and tamp the units to provide an even surface to within .125 inch between the paver units. Apply polymeric sand to manufacturer specifications using a plate vibrator/compactor using a sheet of plywood between the plate compactor and the paver surface to protect the paver surface from marring. G. Route piping in an orderly manner, as designated by the manufacturer or architect/engineer on approved shop drawings. Changes to routing as specified on shop drawings must be approved by the manufacturer.The installing contractor shall document the as built installation. H. When called out on Drawings, Panels may be trimmed or cut as required only in the direction of the Panel flow up to a minimum width of 8". Panels may be cut with any jigsaw,table saw or hand-held power saw or sheet metal shear, using cutting blades appropriate for plastic,wood or metal. Do not cut pressurized Panels. Complexity of the required cut will dictate the appropriate cutting tool. Panel cuts will expose internal fluid distributing channels.Take appropriate steps to ensure fluid channels are not contaminated with foreign materials and debris while exposed. Panel cutting should only be performed by installers who have had proper instruction from the Panel manufacturer.Trimmed or cut Panels must be resealed using the appropriate tools and technique as made available by the Panel manufacturer. Following the cutting or trimming of any Panels,the sealed off openings shall be tested with soapy water to verify resealing integrity. Install piping to allow for expansion and contraction without stressing pipe,joints, or connected equipment. RECEIVED 01/18/2022 ASPEN BUILDING DEPARTMENT J. Where Panels are installed over roof drains, manifolds or other objects that require access or inspection,the installing contractor shall provide a minimum of a 4 foot loop of%2" PE-RT connecting tubes between Panels, on the inlet and outlet of the Panel, located directly above the roof drain to allow for the temporary displacement of the panel to allow for future maintenance of the roof drains without the need to disconnect the Panels. Connecting loops can be welded with standard PE-4710-%2" CTS socket fusion fittings (to be provided by Manufacturer). K. Maintain clearance for access to valves and fittings. L. Air elimination is essential for proper operation of the Panel system. Installer shall be responsible to ensure proper installation of air elimination devices. Coalescing type air separation units are recommended. M.

Once the entire system is piped and deemed leak-free,fill and purge the system as needed for normal operation. Fill each Panel row separately to ensure complete removal of air as well as completely filling with mixed antifreeze solution. W. Install an automatic glycol injection and pressurization system set to a maximum of 14psi with a minimum of a 17 gallon tank capacity or appropriate size for the size of system to allow for over pressurization outflow collection and system pressurization maintenance. A low pressure shut off switch set to 10 psi shall be installed to shut down the pump(s) should the glycol feeder run out fluid and cease to pressurize the system.The system requires a circulating fluid that contains antifreeze. Installer shall be responsible for determining exact concentration required, depending upon location and operating conditions. Follow the recommendations of the antifreeze manufacturer and consider operating conditions, health and safety requirements before choosing and installing antifreeze. It is recommended that the solution be premixed prior to installation to ensure proper mixing and concentration level. Installer shall be responsible to check final concentration following installation. Antifreeze concentration diminishes over time. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for testing and monitoring of concentration levels. X. Install an adequate sized air elimination unit and expansion tank.
