Roof Integrated Solar PV
As solar power moves beyond government subsidy to become a home improvement option, its kerb-appeal is becoming more and more important. Integrated solar has come of age, and with Solar Site Systems, the highest quality and aesthetics now come at a price competitive with above-roof solar.
Roof integrated solar has always been the obvious choice when refurbishing or building a new roof. Solar Site Systems also brings high quality roof integration within reach for retrofit applications.
Now more people can benefit from the advantages of going in-roof.
Benefits
Roof integrated solar replaces the tiles or slates on the roof so the panels sit lower down in the roofline to look more like an intended part of the house and less like a bolt-on afterthought than above-roof rack-mounted systems.
The aesthetic benefits of roof integration are clear, but there are other benefits from going in-roof.
Fast Turnaround
With roof integrated solar, there are no tiles behind the panels, so all roofing repairs can be carried out while leaving the solar system in place.
Installation
Roof integrated solar panels can be installed easily in a new roof. Solar specialists can fix the panels and flashings before the roofing contractors fix the roof covering around them.
Bird Infestation
nests below the panels will reduce the free passage of cooling air behind solar PV panels increasing operating temperature and reducing energy yield.
Increased Safety
Roof-integrated solar outperform on-roof systems when it comes to wind resistance. Integrated solar is fixed to rafters and battens meaning there is no space for wind to get underneath.
