12 Jul Is My Roof Suitable To Install A Solar Array?
Roof compatibility
We do a roof inspection as part of the site audit so these issues are addressed in advance generally. Having said that, the panels are removable and they sit on racks, so we can work with you should something happen. Any roof mount system will require a civil engineers report to ensure the building is sound enough to take the additional weight as well as the additional drag from high winds. These installations are considerable in terms of their infrastructural impact to your site, so our due diligence in advance of any works commencing is crucial to a successful outcome.
It’s important to bear this in mind when/if you are considering a substantial investment in a building you may not have ownership of, or you may outgrow in time. Having said that, the addition of a high performing solar array will add to the value of your building!
