Ballasted solar systems are a smart solution for installing solar panels on flat roofs or surfaces where penetrating the structure isn’t an option. Instead of bolts and anchors, these systems us...
Solar carports are a practical way to combine clean energy with vehicle protection—but are they waterproof? The short answer: Yes, solar carports can be waterproof, depending on how they’r...
Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) are photovoltaic materials that are integrated directly into the building envelope, such as roofs, facades, or skylights. Unlike traditional solar panels that ...
Roof hooks are a key component of many solar mounting systems, especially for residential solar installations on tiled or pitched roofs. Small but vital, they secure the solar panel structure to the r...
Ballasted mounting systems for flat roof solar installations rely on weight to resist wind uplift without penetrating the roof membrane. Typical photovoltaic (PV) dead loads are between 3-5 lbs/ft2 (1...
In the realm of solar energy, ensuring safe and efficient electrical connections is paramount. One of the most widely adopted solutions for this purpose is the MC4 connector. These connectors have bec...
Mounting solar panels to a roof rack is an effective solution for RVers, off-roaders, and mobile energy enthusiasts looking to power off the grid. This method provides flexibility, optimal sunlight ex...
