Why A PV Laminate Solar Roof?
Apr 29th, 2009 by admin
Speed: A PV laminate solar roofing goes on faster than any other solar panel system on the market today. No roof racks and ladder time is minimized.
Efficiency: Because of the remarkable range for temperature and shadow tolerances, PV laminate roofing produces more electricity than traditional crystalline panels on a watt per watt basis in actual power output.
Roof Flexibility: PV laminates can be installed over a wide range of roof slopes and geometries, from 3.5* to 60* (degrees signs rather than asterisks)
Clean Design: With an Absolute Steel solar laminate, the laminate is applied directly onto the metal roofing system thereby maintaining the roof’s profiles from all directions. The system’s quick connect wiring system is hidden in the roof details which eliminates the typical negative visual impact associated with crystalline PV modules.
Reliability: With an Absolute Steel’s Uni-Solar laminate you’ll have a solar roofing system that will last. That’s because there are no penetrations to the roofing system and the laminate is light weight so there’s no damage to the roofing system. And because the power is produced under a wide range of temperature and lighting conditions, the system will produce more power when you need it.
Resistance to Vandalism: Solar roofing laminates are highly resistant to vandalism as they have no glass materials to be broken and the laminates are adhered to the roofing system so aggressively that pulling them off the panels is just about impossible.
Lower Capital Outlay: Because the PV laminate is adhered directly onto the metal roofing panels, there is no additional mounting system such as what crystalline solar panels use so the costs of hardware and labor are drastically reduced. And for the balance of the system such as inverters, AC and DC connecters and such, only the most efficient components are used which results in more energy per watt installed.
Warranty: The Uni-Solar PV laminate is backed by a 20 year limited warranty and the metal roofing panels come with a 30 year warranty. The system warranty, meaning all the individual electrical components has a 5 year warranty.
