The different types of solar panel fixings
Installing solar panels is a crucial process to ensure their long-term efficiency and durability. Each type of roof, whether tiled, slate, steel tray or on the ground, requires specific fixings adapted to its characteristics. Discover in this article the different fixing methods and the best practices for an efficient and secure installation. Note that at Oscaro Power , our kits are designed via our online configurator, which allows you to have the fixings adapted directly to your roof.
Fasteners on tiled roofs
Tiled roofs are common in many areas, requiring specific fixings to ensure seamless integration of solar panels.
Rail supports
Aluminium rail brackets are often used for their strength and adaptability to tiled roofs, providing a robust and durable solution.
Fasteners on slate roofs
Slate roofs also require specific fixings to preserve the integrity of the structure while maximizing sun exposure.
Photovoltaic mounting brackets on slate
The photovoltaic mounting brackets on slate are designed to adapt to the particularities of this material, ensuring a secure fixing without compromising aesthetics.
Installation of solar panels on slate roof
Installing solar panels on a slate roof requires specific expertise to avoid damage and ensure optimal performance of the solar system. At Oscaro Power, no matter which fixings you choose, our guides and experts are here to help you.
Fasteners on steel sheet roofs
Fixing solar panels on a steel roof
Fixing solar panels to a steel deck roof requires the use of specific hooks and aluminum rails to ensure maximum stability.
Solar mounting brackets for steel trays
Steel deck roofs require suitable fixing techniques to ensure a robust and durable installation of solar panels.
The solar mounting brackets for steel trays are designed to adapt to the metal structure while ensuring secure fixing of the solar panels.
Installation of solar kits on steel tray roofs
Installing solar kits on a steel deck roof is made easier by using pre-assembled kits, simplifying the installation process and ensuring precise fixing.
The floor mounting kit
For ground installations, different fixing methods are used to ensure optimal stability of the solar panels. At Oscaro Power, our experts have designed a ground-mounted solar kit that is ready to be connected!
Ground mounting of solar panels
Ground mountings for solar panels can include galvanized steel or aluminum brackets, suitable for different soil types and environmental conditions.
Ground mounting brackets for solar panels
Ground mounting brackets for solar panels are designed to withstand the elements and ensure a safe and durable installation of the panels.
The ballast kit for solar panels
The ballast kit is used to stabilize solar panels on the ground, ensuring a sturdy fixing without the need for permanent foundations.
By following these recommendations and choosing the right fasteners for your type of roof or ground installation, you can ensure optimal performance of your solar system while ensuring its long-term durability. Always consult professionals for installation that complies with local codes and to maximize the benefits of your solar project.
Are solar panel mounts compatible with all types of roofs?
It is important to note that the fasteners and brackets used to install solar panels may vary depending on the type of roof.
For flat roofs, there are specific solar mounting kits that allow the panels to be fixed directly to the roof surface. They can be fixed to the ground using steel brackets or directly to the roof using specific mounting brackets.
For pitched roofs, solar panels can be secured using mounting rails that follow the slope of the roof. These rails are attached to the roof frame, providing a strong and secure mounting. The panels are then attached to the rails using specific fixings.
For tiled roofs, it is possible to use special fixings that allow the solar panels to be fixed between the tiles. It is important to note that installing solar panels on tiled roofs may require adjustments depending on the type of tile used.
