Solar panels are mounted to a roof using a “racking” solution. Most racking is made from aluminum because it is strong, durable and lightweight. Rails are used to hold the panels in place while other components anchor the rails to the roof. The system used to install your panels will be unique to your specific area. Some locations have more wind and storms than others, for example.
When mounting the solar racks, small holes will be drilled into the roof, but you don’t have to worry about water getting through. To ensure that your home stays dry, special flashing is installed around every penetration to help water flow away. The drill holes are also filled with silicone to form a watertight seal. Rubber gaskets and washers may also be used to protect the penetration location.
Our company is highly skilled in solar mounting on many different roof types, including tile roof, tin roof and shingle roof.
