At this time you should do a layout on the roof conflming everything on the drawing will fit as it 18 intended. Any irregularities should be noted now, so that you can deal with them simply on Install day. The quality of the rooling should be deterrnined, co that any repairs or replacement can happen before or in conjunction with the Installation. On a composition root it Is imponant to 1(now as much as possible about: the manufacturer, the age of roof, the type of substrate (plywood or oriented grand board IOS B]), the raAer size, the spacing and span, the age of roof structure, who roofed it, who built It, etc. Photos should be taken of eu of the roof variables and associated with the job file for any future reference either short term or long. Typically the building owner can look ina file and find the composition manufacturer. 11 not, take a piece to the roofing yard, they can usually recognize * maker and the rough vintage. It is then easy to obtain the wditer, manufacturers installation instructions for the roofing matetials you are dealing with. The manufacturer·s Instructions will spell out exactly what does and does not void the warranty of their roollng product. Most have a clause about roof temperature. This Is commonly missed, but can easily be noted If you read the Instructions. Officially, the foofing manufacturefs instructions supersede our instructions, as our product is weaving into theirs. it is also importarit to have their Instructions [r the job tile.*lily future reference. tf the manufacturer cannot be found, there is obviously no warranty in place. Or a roof that has a material and labor warranty in place (new roof), it Is recommended to at least consult the roofer of record. Often the rooflng contractor will void the labor portion of their wa,ranty If anothertrade modifies their work. Give the roofing cont,actorthe option of handling the roofing modifications, or at least give them the opportunity to Inspect and approve the modifications you make. There willbe fees to this roofer. but If It maintains the labor warlanty it should be good money spent. Product Selection The Composition Mount Is Intended to m within most composition and wood shingle roof systems, but not all. Specincally It Is sized to fit within a standard 5· to 51/2- row or course. To confirm that the Comp Mount will match your roof, measure the course exposure of you roof. The ·exposed» surface course height should measure no more than 5 3/4·. If it turns out the roof tiles are a non-standard size greater than 5 3/4». the alternative method Il to use a Quick Motelrt Shake Mount instead. In this case, follow the directions for the Quick Mount Shake Mount.

There are two questions that must be asked when adding anything to a roof. 1. Can the roof/building/foundation handle the additional load7 2. What is to keep tho new load from blowing away? It Is assumed that a licensed solar installer can answer these questions. If he / she can't. he /she win need to lind somebody that can. A Ikensed engineer Is the easiest solution. Some of the racklng manufacturers have guides to calculating a code compli· ant install as well. Many variables must be considered and determined to complete the:, calcutation. The spacing between mounts has the variables of strength of rail, distance between parallel rails, cantilever of modules over rails, pull out strength of mount, slope of roof. heigm of roof, wind zone, roof type, structural integrety of roof framing, etc. The only vatues In the variables above that we can provide is pull out strength and shear of mount. We provide structural test reports on all of our mounts as needed. You will need to gather the rest of the applicable information and do the calculations for your specific project. Further Resources In the process of all the research we have done, we came up with what we call the 1,/heel of Accountability·. 11 15 a graphical look at the many official entities that govern how waterproonng should be done. Al our web ste you can click on any wedge of the wheel and get the code snippets that pertain to that entity's focus on roof penetrations. Please dorrt hesitate to use i! to your advantage. And of course if you have any feed back pro or con, let us have it. Take photos of your jobs using Quick Mount Products and submit them to us at Info@quiclonountpv.com, we'll put them up in our web gallery. Pt,1 Photo Gallery in the Suwect line. Product Includes Each box includes all necessary mounting hardware, mounts with flashing, and written instructions. Alternative Attachment Methods The Composition Mount Is Intended to be attached tnto a lumber rafter. Mounts are usually laid out based on the location of the rafters. In some cases it Is desired to place a mount where there is no latter. In this case it is possible to place a block between rafters, then lag Into the block. In the case of metal ratters, lumber blocking the rafters Is a solution, but should be done per the building's engineer of record. Shared Rail & 5" Rule On a Ghared rail system, where the mounts must be in an exact spot, it is Important to make sure the unit Is flashed properly. Normally the vertie:al placement is guided by the exposed front edge of the shIngle. If (on a 5 exposure comp) the fashing ts nush with this, then you have 9 of flashing overcourse 1,5' of flashing undercourse 2.and 2· of flashing undercours- es 2 and 3. This is Impor'tar,t because if there is a vertical joint in course 2 the water cannot find its way under the flashing because it extends under course 3. When the nashing must be shmed to catch a shared rail, It bad- vised to shift the mount up the roof only, teaving less flashIng over course 1, and more flashIng under course 3. If it is necesary to shift downward, it is advised to move down a whole course and then shift up accordingly. Sealants It Is Important to put a compatible sealant into any and all holes drilled Into a roof. Most roofing manufactures list a suggested, approved scalarlt in their spedfications. In the freeze-thaw zones, it Is imponant to follow the manufacturers· rules for freeze-thaw conditions. Use the property rated sealant for each speclfic application and condition. Some that may be more appropriate for asphal/composition roofs Include Geocell 2300 and ChemUnk M-1 but be sure to do your own research to confirm a compat- ible and appropriate sealant with the materials you are working with. +S="f L .4 1.

Layingout theins[allation area and planning for material conservation. B. Installing footings and rails, beginning with the lowest row and moving up the roof. C. Placing modules and cap strips, beginning with the highest row and moving down [he roof. The following illustrated steps describe the procedure in detail. Before beginning, please note these important considerations. / [1.3.] Installer responsibilities: Please review this manual thoroughly before installing your SF System. SunPower also provides a limited warranty on SF System products (page 14). The installer is solely responsible for: • Complying with all applicable local or national building codes; • Ensuring that SunPower and other products are appropriate for the particular installation and the installation environment; • Ensuring that the roof, its rafters,connections, and other structural support members can sup- port the array under allload conditions (this total assembly is referred to as the roof rafter struc- ture); • Using only SunPower parts and installer-supplied parts as specified by SunPower (substitution of parts may void the warranty); • Ensuring that lag screws have adequate pullout strength and shear capacities as installed; • Verifying the strength of any alternate mounting used in lieu of the lag screws; • Maintaining the waterproof integrity of the roof, including selection of appropriate flashing; • Ensuring sa fe installation o f all electrical aspects ofthe PVarray. Footings must be lagged into structural members. . Never attach them to the decking alone, which leaves both the array and roofsusceptible to severe damage. For array widths or lengths greater than 32 feet, contact SunPower concerning thermal expansion issues. Sample layout, illustrated in Figure 4 Assumptions: 12 modules (60- x 36-), arranged in 3 rows of4 modules Amy width = 144- (36-module Widthx 4 modules perrow) Arraylength = 180- (60- modulelength x 3 rows) + 3 - (1 h end rail width x 2 rails) + lib- (44 berween.moduleran widthx 2 rails) = 18436 1. Laying out the installation area: Always install SF System rails perpendicular [o rafters. (These instructions assume typical rafters that run from the gutter to the peak of theroof. If this is not the case, contact SunPower.) Rails are typically mounted horizontally (parallel to the lower edge of the rooO, and must be mounted within 10 degrees of horizontal. Leave adequate room to move safely around the array during installation. During module installation, you will need to slide one module in each row about a foot beyond the end ofthe rails on one side. Using the numberof rows and the number of modules per row in your installation, determine the size of your array area fonowing Figure 2.

AU such features must be induded in module length. $ t SFSystem Planning andAssembly Installation Manual SUNPOWER 2. Installing the lowest row ofstandoffs, L-feet and rail: Intallstandoffs with flashing directly onto high profile morini material (tile or shake) or low profile roofing material (asphalt shingles or sheet metal). L-feet must be flush with or above the · highest point of the roof surface. Install the first row of standoffs at the lower edge of the installation area. Ensure standoffs are aligned by using a chalk line. (A SF Sys[em rail can also be used as a straight edge.) SF System Rail Drill a pilot hole through roof into the center of the rafter at each standofflag screw hole location. Many types and brands of flashings can be used with the SF System. SunPower offers a Oatey® «No-Calk" flashings for iu steel standoffs and Oatey® or SunPower flashings for its aluminum two-piece standoffs. Fasten the standoffto the roof with the lag icrews. Position and attach the L- foot with respect to the lower edge of the roo f as illustrated in Figure 3. Cut the rails to your array width, being sure to keep rail slots free of roofing grit or other debris. If your installation requires splices, assemble them prior to attaching L-feet (see 'Footing and splicing requirements," below, and "Material planning for rails and cap strips," p. 7).

For roillengths exceeding32 feet, thermal expansion joints may be necessary. Please contact SunPower. 1. Footing spacing along [he rail (A in illustration above) is determined by wind loading (see pp. 4-5, especiallystep 4).Foot spacing must never exceed 48 inches. 2. Overhang (B) must be no more than half the length of the maximum footing spacing (A). For example, if Span A is 32 inches, Overhang B should not exceed 16 inches. 3. Do not locate a splice in the center third of the span between two adjacent feet. 4. In a spliced length of rail, attend sections must be supported by no less than two L-feet. 5. All interior rail sections must be supported by no less than one L-foot. 6. Interiorrailsections supported by only one L.foot must be adjacent, on at least one side, to a rail section supported by no less than two L-feet. 7.

SF System Planning andAssembly Installation Manual M|]M SFSystem Planning and Assembly Installation Manual Material planning for rails and cap strips: P,eplanning material use/6/yourparticularcrraycan prevent structural oritheticproblems, particularb, those caused by vecy short lengths Of roit or cap strip. This example illustrates one approach. Rail segments come from five 192-inch lengths, lettered A thru E. Rail A, for example, is cut into two 96-inch segments, with one segmetit spliced into each of the first two rails. Similarly, five 192-inch cap strips are designated V through Z. 6. Securing the first module: Ga[hersufficient lengths of cap strip co cover the length of the first rail.

PerA-lissoble omitiong: :-· 1, ...3-' I 4/3 module Width - .t-" ·'....i-- Stuctural requirements for rails are detailed in 'Fooling and splicing requirements" (p.5). Structurally, cap strips require: · A screw in prepunched hole (which occur every 7 inches, beginning 3-1/2 inches from the ends of the rails). • One screw 3-1/2 inches. or less from the each end of every rail segment. Wherever there is no prepunched hole within 3-1/2 inches of an end of a segment, drill a 44.inch hole 2 inches from the end of the segment and install a cap strip screw. (In most cases, you can avoid this situalion with good material planning.) Structural requirements always iake precedence, but usually good planning can also achieve both material conservation and superior aesthetics. This example conserves material and achieves two speci fic aesthetic goals: • Cap strip screws must align across the rails. • End screws must be equidistant from both sides of the array. The example assumes an array of thiee rows, each holding five modules 41 inches wide. Thus, four 205-inch rail assemblies and cap svip assemblies need to be cut and spliced from 192 inch sections ofrailand ep strip. The example illustrates one means of doing so, without violating structural requirements or aesthetic goals. May center Ene All cap strip segments are cut at the midpoint between prepunched screw holes. For each rail, start with the cap stip segment that crosses the amy center line, and position over the center line so that the appropriate holes are spaced equally on either side. Position each cap strip onto its rail and mark its trim point. Remove and trim before final mounting. Preliminaryfooting and splicepositons must be checked against structural requirements in "Footing and splicing requiremenu" (p.5). In this example, the center of the array is omet2 inches#om the center· rafter. Thls prevents rail splices BD (3rd raij and CE (4th ra;Ofromfalling too closeto the center of the spans betweenfootings.

Frequently asked questions about standoffs and roof variations Drill hole 0.201" (#7 dritl) into the SF rail and attach groun{ling hug using a #8 x 1 W stainless steel bolt. For optimal pecformance, Sun.Power PV modules must only be used in conjigurations where the positive polarUy of the PV array is connected to ground. Failure to comply with this requirement will reduce the pedormance of the system and invalidate SunPower's Limited Power Warrantyfor PV Modules. How high above the roof is an array? The answer depends on the orientation of your L.feet and che length of your standoffs, if used. See the illustration appropriate to your installation.
