The Solution
Solar installer, Mark O’Shea, with Frontier Electrical, introduced the S-5! product to the architect who has since specified it on a number of other projects. O’Shea was familiar with the S-5! solar mounting system–the PVKIT along with the Protea Bracket–and knew it would provide the precise low-profile, aesthetic solution the homeowner desired.
The S-5! system also allowed for the maximum number of solar panels due to its ability to screw into the ridges of the roof, instead of the roof purlins, providing a vast number of potential attachment points to choose from.
Additionally, it enabled the architect to achieve a design engineered to withstand the area’s high winds by directly attaching the PV to the ribs of the roof.
