Seven Things to Review Before Installation
- Roof age: How much service life remains in the existing roof?
- Roof condition: Are there leaks, damage or deck concerns?
- Roof slope: Is the pitch compatible with the selected roofing and solar system?
- Solar area: Which roof planes have usable area and limited shade?
- Drainage: How do valleys, eaves and water paths interact with the solar layout?
- Electrical scope: What electrical work is needed for the planned system?
- Long-term service: How will the roof and solar components be inspected or serviced later?
Start with the roof. Then plan the solar system around a durable exterior strategy.
