Hi Andrew,
Check with Vince at Energy Design in Eugene, OR.  He has a product called
Rain Frame.  I saw one of the installs and it was very nice.

[RE-wrenches] In search of an awesome PV shade structure

2016-10-12 Thread Andrew Truitt
Good afternoon wrenches!  Does anyone know of a custom fabricator who might
be able to manufacture a shade structure that meets the following criteria
for a project in NJ?

   - fully protects anything underneath from the elements, preferably with
   some type of weatherproof membrane under the array
   - incorporates a gutter (or similar) to address runoff and snow sloughing
   - can support ~40kW of PV in a footprint approximating a square, with
   columns at the 4 corners
   - aesthetically pleasing


Thanks in advance!


- Andrew
