We use these with pretty good success, and pretty cheap compared to other options we found.

A bit pricy (few hundred, I think) especially considering they are one per person but sometimes that's the cost of safety.

I have a steep standing seam roof project coming up. We wanted to set a ledger board on S5 clips, but were worried they would leave visible damage to the new roof.

Worked great, but wire management was challenging with minimal clearance under modules. Had to think ahead to make it work. And still was a struggle. I also used 6 rather then 4 per module to even out the loads on the roof panels. I feel confident that it is solid, but I know how the roof was connected to include proper clip spacing and screw size for maximum wind load here in the Columbia Gorge and proper tacking of the top of the panel under the ridge to prevent sliding down. If I had it to do over I would however have used rails to make wire management easier!

I’m just working with him on overall design, hes doing the work. Its not a large system. 16 modules on two roof orientations, ( 4 on one, 12 on the other) with offset modules. Standing metal seam roof that is being installed with solar in mind, lots of fasteners. Hes very competent and pays attention to details. Any positive/negative recommendations. thanks in advance, jay peltz power _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Redwood Alliance List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org <mailto:RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org> Change listserver email address & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm <http://www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm> Check out or update participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org <http://www.members.re-wrenches.org> _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Redwood Alliance List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org <mailto:RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org> Change listserver email address & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm <http://www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm> Check out or update participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org <http://www.members.re-wrenches.org> _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Redwood Alliance List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org <mailto:RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org> Change listserver email address & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm <http://www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm> Check out or update participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org <http://www.members.re-wrenches.org>
