An automatic bleed at the top of the installation can be a source of major problems in the event of boiling. Some of the glycol could be evacuated from the system (risk of additional overheating and damage to the installation). Using a specific solar automatic bleed involves fitting a bleed isolation valve. The valve must be closed after filling and setting the mode.
