[RE-wrenches] Slate roof attachment?

2015-07-08 Thread Lars Ortegren
Wrenches,
Anyone out there attach to slate roofs? we've had one, that ended with us
re-roofing the portion of the roof under the array, but I'm wondering if
there is a great product out there that others have used? Thus far, the
only attachment I can find is the PV Quickmount shake flashing that even
mentions slate.  Ideas?

Re: [RE-wrenches] Slate roof attachment?

2015-07-08 Thread August Goers
Hi Lars,



Slate is a tough one. We’ve always hired a roofer to work with us on slate
roofs – they can setup toe boards (if it is steep) and work with our
installers as we mount stanchions. We’ve used standard cylindrical posts
such as Unirac standoffs or Pro Solar Fast Jacks and then they flash them
with copper flashings. They can also replace slates as they break.

I would never attempt to work on a slate roof without a roofer involved –
it is simply too fragile.



Best,



August

Last year SMA didn't have a booth at Intersolar, just the company can illegally 
parked outside. Not sure about this year but I do know Greg Smith just left.

Re: [RE-wrenches] Slate roof attachment?

Completely agree, slate brakes if you look at it wrong and that being said who 
is responsible to remove the modules to replace the tiles for the next  how 
many years Jerry

Hi Lars, Slate is a tough one. We’ve always hired a roofer to work with us on 
slate roofs – they can setup toe boards (if it is steep) and work with our 
installers as we mount stanchions. We’ve used standard cylindrical posts such 
as Unirac standoffs or Pro Solar Fast Jacks and then they flash them with 
copper flashings. They can also replace slates as they break. 

I would never attempt to work on a slate roof without a roofer involved – it is 
simply too fragile. Best, August Luminalt From: RE-wrenches

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Slate roof attachment? Wrenches,Anyone out there attach 
to slate roofs? we've had one, that ended with us re-roofing the portion of the 
roof under the array, but I'm wondering if there is a great product out there 
that others have used? Thus far, the only attachment I can find is the PV 
Quickmount shake flashing that even mentions slate.  Ideas?
