Solar Accessories
There are three types of solar panel mounting accessories: flat roof mounts, sloped roof mounts, and specialized commercial roof mounts.
Flat roof mounts: These are suitable for flat roof types and are designed to keep the solar panels at the optimal angle for maximum energy production. They usually consist of ballasted systems or anchored frames that hold the panels in place without penetrating the roof surface. Flat roof mounts are easy to install and require minimal maintenance.
Sloped roof mounts: These are designed to attach solar panels to a sloped roof using rails or clamps. The angle of the solar panel can be adjusted to maximize energy production. Sloped roof mounts are versatile and can be used on a variety of roofing materials, such as asphalt shingles, metal roofs, and tile roofs.
Specialized commercial roof mounts: These are designed for commercial buildings with unique roofing designs, such as curved, standing seam, or membrane roofs. These mounts are customized to fit the specific roof type and are designed to minimize the load on the roof structure while maximizing energy production. Specialized commercial roof mounts require professional installation and may require additional engineering and structural analysis.
