Automatic adjustment of the solar collector to the geometry of the roof

In the 2019.d version of CYPEPLUMBING Solar Systems, the option: “Adjust the layout to the geometry of the roof” has been implemented for solar collectors (“General settings” button > “Design and check options to be carried out” section > “Solar thermal collectors” or “Solar thermal collectors with storage tanks” button > Edit or create a collector).

The option “Adjust the layout to the geometry of the roof” is activated or deactivated independently for each type of solar collector that has been defined in the general options.

If the option “Adjust the layout to the geometry of the roof” is activated, the program will automatically adjust the solar collector (azimuth, slope and installation height) to that of the geometry of the roof when users select the “Design” button in the panel that appears when a solar collector is introduced or edited.

If the option “Adjust the layout to the geometry of the roof” is not activated, the program will only adjust the azimuth and the slope to its optimum values (regardless of the geometry of the roof) when users select the “Design” button from the panel that appears when a solar collector is introduced or edited.
