Unirac Inc., North America’s leading manufacturer of solar photovoltaic (PV) mounting solutions, unveiled its SolarMount-I™ system, an innovative new click-system mounting solution offering better value and installation ease for the residential PV market.
The SolarMount-I solution is now available in two beam strengths, making the innovative PV mounting system applicable in most wind zones across the United States. Building on the peace of mind you’ve come to expect from Unirac, the SolarMount I-Series features an optimized I-beam design, demonstrating excellent strength to weight ratio while providing features that speed the installation process.
“The best just got better,” said Douglas May, Unirac CEO. “While everyone else was busy trying to keep up with Unirac’s SolarMount technology, we were busy engineering amazing new features and support programs that make SolarMount-I faster to install, easier to use, and more available than ever. We’re confident the market will embrace the SolarMount-I solution for its versatility and performance as well as its ability to reduce labor and installation cost.”
Engineered for flush mounting applications, SolarMount-I offers one of the lowest total installed cost and best value in the industry. With no drilling required and “click and secure” connections eliminating the need for nuts and bolts, SolarMount-I gets installers off the roof in nearly half the time when compared to competitive products.
Featuring an unprecedented number of attachments for tile and shingle roofs, SolarMount-I offers installation freedom and flexibility on a variety of roofing types and supports most PV modules.
“We compared many PV mounting systems before selecting Unirac’s SolarMount-I,” said Jeffrey Serylo, manager of Milholland Electric. “We chose SolarMount-I because it’s not just a product, but a complete solution. We’ve calculated significant labor savings because it is easier to install than competitive offerings.”
