Who can help:
One of our local jurisdictions, City of Petaluma, is beginning to require
flashed footings under all solar arrays. I think that some flashed footings
are better than the Unirac L feet or Prosolar's TileTrac foot, but the flashed
footings cost a lot more $, and some flashed footing products seem flawed (less
watertight) They are asking me to uninstall two commissioned systems from last
week, and replace the footings with flashed Fast Jacks, even though the
documents detailed the penetration method.
I am looking for some good info that supports flexible installation
methods, including caulked footings. Our industry has come a long way from the
early days of racking on slotted angle iron with steel L-brackets for feet, but
those experiences tend to give me confidence in continuing to use caulked
footings. Nick Soleil
