ECD FAN,


S-5 has a clamp design so as to work with a metal roof design without permanently damaging the metal roof and adapting large cumbersom panels. Metal roofs are expensive and not a large cross section on the market. the S-5 clamps are more expensive than our fastening system because we have a single design that is concealed and they need designs for different metal roofs. Large pv panels can be mounted to our pan system and make use of our high wind attachment allthough I believe its for this reason the residential market rejects solar because of unsightly cumbersome solar panels that exist in the market today. I feel a standard size set in between the tiles and a design array that is palatable architecturally as well as good for your wallet is the best idea. S-5 is a good option for a metal roof if you dont care about seamless or at least palatable solar integration. Believe me Im on the same wave length and understand completly not to get behind one specific solar technology. So If I have start with one technology which one should I go with? The idea is to take the most efficient affordable technology and narrow the design to configure to a architecturally palatable array of traditional sustainable roof tile. The base system is $2.84 per sq.ft. including material and labor down to the plywood deck. I can halve the cost of a metal roof and appeal to a much wider demographic. I might mention we are Miami Dade Product Control Approved and that in itself speaks volumes if you are familiar with stringent government testing.
