Roof Mount SystemsSolar panels are mounted on aluminum tracks fastened to the roof of an existing building. The roof mount system will produce up to 9.6kW/h for an approximate average of 3.8-4 hours per day. Roof mount systems are only suitable for roofs that are both south facing and structurally strong enough (usually newer buildings).
BenefitsNo land required Larger system availability under the FIT program Almost no maintenance required Lower price than fixed system
DrawbacksSnow cover potential during the winter Not as easy to access for cleaning panels is they get dirty Inverters are not covered by a 20 year warranty. Site specific engineering required and a building permit
*Note: The warranty on all systems allow for approximately a 1% drop in the productivity of the panels per year.
