4 FAQs about Solar roof ridge tile installation

How do I install solar panels on a lightweight tile roof?

The best way to install solar panels on a lightweight tile roof is through a method called inset solar installation, also known as a “comp-out” installation. This technique removes the section of tile where the solar panels will be installed and replaces it with composite shingles before mounting the solar array.

How do you install solar panels on a new roof?

Mounting the solar panels – Once the new roof section is complete, a solar expert installs the racking system and solar panels securely onto the composite shingles. Unlike tile, these shingles can handle the weight and pressure of solar mounting without breaking.

Can solar panels damage a tile roof?

Future damage from vibrations: Even if tiles remain intact during installation, they can weaken over time. Wind moving between the solar panels and the racking system can create vibrations that cause tiles to crack down the road. Because of these risks, standard installation methods won’t work for tile roofs —especially lightweight ones.

How do you install ridge tiles on a roof?

Position a batten just below the ridge (the top of the roof) and lay another sample tile onto it. Make sure that the batten is placed so that the ridge tiles will overlap the top course of roof tiles by around 75mm. Once you’re happy that this is correct, fix the batten into place.
