The Quick Mount PV is designed for cost-effective rail mounting on composition shingle roofs. It provides a unique combination of a solid rail mounting base and a code-compliant, NRCA-approved flashing system that installs easily and quickly.
Approximately 70-75% of the roofs in North America are covered with composite shingles – usually colloquialized to "comp shingles". Typically, when installing PV arrays on these roofs, an L or T foot is located over a rafter and holes for the lag bolts are drilled directly through the comp shingles.
The International Building Code (IBC) now lists a number of requirements for flashing roof penetrations. Further, the National Roofing Council of America insists that all penetrations must be flashed and lists a number of "best practices" for flashing penetrations. Failure to flash properly will often result in voiding the roof and/or roofer's warranty.
Quick Mount PV flashings specifically address these issues.
