  • Requires the creation of holes in the roof which can lead to leaks.
  • Makes roof repairs or replacement difficult.
  • Existing roof structure may not be appropriate to work on or support a PV system. It needs to be evaluated.
  • The tilt and azimuth of the roof is typically used and is often not optimal. This can reduce system performance.
  • Roof surfaces can generate significant amounts of heat that can reduce PV module production.
  • Module tilt cannot be adjusted seasonally like with a pole mount.
