Solar Panel Flashing Membrane

MFM Building Products

Peel & Seal is a self-adhering flashing membrane composed of an aluminum top film laminated to two cross-laminated polyethylene films for outstanding durability. Designed to be left exposed indefinitely, Peel & Seal self-seals around fasteners that hold the solar panel mounting brackets to the roof surface to form a leak-proof barrier. Peel & Seal is available in four color options and seven width choices to match your project requirements. It is tested to ASTM D 1970, ICC-ES ESR 1654, Florida Building Code, Miami-Dade County, and FORTIFIED listed. For a free sample, visit mfmbp.com.

Solar Panel Flashing Membrane

ATAS International

With the increasing installation of rooftop solar arrays, a “solar ready” metal roofing system is the ideal choice for photovoltaic solar systems because of its long service life. When installing a crystalline system (typically warranted for 25 years of power generation), a building owner benefits from a roofing substrate with a greater life expectancy than the solar panels. Standing seam metal panels provide a natural platform for attaching crystalline systems without roof penetrations with the use of special attachment clamps that grip the metal seams. Additionally, highly reflective roofs with cooler rooftop temperatures improve solar panel performance. For more information, visit atas.com.

ENRGY Anchors

Johns Manville

The ENRGY Anchor is designed to work seamlessly with a range of photovoltaic rack-mounted solutions, accommodating various tilt angles and orientations. It provides a modern alternative to conventional roof-penetrating attachment methods and can be installed on most buildings, even in high-wind areas, without adding significant weight. This innovative solution removes the necessity for ballast or pavers, delivering low-distributed loads when used with racking systems and PV modules. Compatible with most seismic zones, it can be applied to different roofing systems using established techniques, creating a cohesive waterproof system through heat-welding or adhesion.For more information, visit jm.com/roofing.
