Looking to Mount Solar Using Rails on Exposed-Fastener Metal Roofs?

SolarFoot is a simple, cost-effective pedestal for L-Foot attachment of rail-mounted solar PV. The bracket can be used to mount any L-foot to exposed-fastened metal roofs, such as AG-panel or R-Panel. Designed to straddle minor striations in your roof panel for attachment into decking or structure, SolarFoot can be fastened into a variety of substrates, including the wood deck, wood timber purlins or steel purlins. SolarFoot Benefits:
