Standing Seam Metal Roof With Integrated Solar Panels

Standing seam metal roofing is defined as a concealed fastener metal panel system that features vertical legs and a broad flat area between the two legs.

Standing seam metal roof with integrated solar panels.

Solar metal roofing the most common type of solar metal roofing is the standing seam metal roof with integrated unisolar pv laminates. Metal roofing provides the best platform for the building integrated photovoltaic bipv system. The modules are available in three dimensions. The series connection of modules is made under the roof sheeting between the battens.

Electricity is produced in a thin photovoltaic layer that covers the metal sheet. In that case the pv system is actually integrated into the building design and is almost unnoticeable on the roof. Thin film pv systems are flexible lightweight and adhere directly to the pan of a metal standing seam roof. The best part about standing seam is that it s proven to last in pretty much any climate while providing superior durability longevity and energy savings.

Metal roofing and more proseam is a standing seam metal roof panel suitable for residential commercial and light industrial properties. For standing seam roofs the solar panels simply clamp onto the seam where two panels are connected. With clip fastened standing seam roofs the panels can be clamped onto the raised seams so that no or very few actual roof penetrations are necessary. The clamps don t actually go through the seam but squeeze the seam tightly so wind can t pull the solar panels off.

A standing seam metal roof integrated with solar panels is a powerful combination of durability longevity energy efficiency and most importantly value for the money. The installation is as easy as the installation of standard standing seam metal roof. Based on the long established principle of fully supported metal roofing the panels are secretly fixed with no penetrative or through fasteners offering a completely watertight roof system. Solar installation on a classic metal roof traditional solar panels can be integrated nicely with our metal roofs.

Colonial seam continuous standing seam metal roof panel with an integral seam. It s also described as having raised seams or vertical legs that rise above the level of the panel s flat area. Unisolar pv laminates were initially designed to fit in the pan of standing seam panels with the connection terminals concealed by the ridge cap. Integrating your standing seam metal roof with thin film pv solar laminates simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
