Key Considerations When Selecting Solar Roof Mounts

Structural Compatibility: Roofs are not built the same, Some roofs are flat while others maybe sloped or even curved and are made of materials such as metal, tile or even asphalt shingles. For roofs to remain intact, solar roof mount need to be equipped differently depending on the roof type. Ballasted systems for example are mostly preferred for flat roofs while angled mounts are often used for pitched roofs. Furthermore due to the general purpose of solar roof mount, the mounts used need to match the roofs material so there is no leakage through the years. 

Weather Resistance and Durability: In case there is heavy wind, coastal salt or snow, the solar roof mounts should be able to hold together since that is one of its purposes and if those situations are too extreme, the panels would need to be made from either aluminum or stainless steel as those materials are corrosion resistant which will allow the solar roof mounts to perform perfectly in those tough conditions. Since roof mounts for solar panels are expected to be in the same position for several decades, weather resistance is crucial for long term installations. Additionally to ensure better durability of the solar roof mounts, sufficient wind resistance ratings, fixing angles and strong points of fastening are some of the other additional solutions.

Solar Panel Orientation and Tilt: For increase in energy production, checking solar roof mount’s default position and tilt angles according to the site is very important. Mounts should enable the necessary tilt angle for maximal solar radiation reception. Sun tracking adjustable solar roof mount is of great use in the northern or southern hemisphere while in some regions the sun goes down and seasonal changes are not possible as it negatively affects efficiency. Regarding fixed systems, and if the correct tilt angle of the solar roof mount is achieved and the installation is done correctly, energy production maximization in the course of the year will be achieved.
