Solar Slate Solutions announces a new product, the Solar Slate Plate, which allows solar panels to be attached without compromising the beauty and integrity of the slate roof. Solar Slate provides an ideal solution for solar panel installers, solar companies, roofing contractors, electricians and others who have struggled with installing solar panels on a slate roof.
“Our Solar Slate Plate has an innovative patented spacer technology that enables installers and roofers to provide seamless installation while saving time,” said David Tomolillo, president and owner of Solar Slate Solutions, Inc. “Our product installs quickly, looks clean, doesn’t require slate removal and is affordable.”
Tomolillo spent the last four years developing, testing, manufacturing and patenting this revolutionary new product for mounting solar panels on slate roofs. Solar Slate Plate also works on synthetic slate, stone, French tile or flat stone, as well as on wood cedar roofing. Solar Slate Plate takes minutes to install and uses a patented spacer technology to ensure no slates are damaged during the installation process or beyond.
The innovative Solar Slate Kit includes everything needed to install 20 mounts. It includes: 20 x Solar Slate Plate Flashing; 20 x Adjustable Spacers; 20 x 5.5-inch Stainless Lag Bolts and 20 x Stainless Washers. Solar Slate will also recommend the appropriate sealant options.
Typically, the installation of solar panels on a slate roof requires the actual removal of slates. With Solar Slate’s innovative solution, that is no longer the case. Solar Slate Solutions caters to suppliers and installers of solar panels, including solar companies, roofers, electricians and general contractors, in commercial or residential installation projects.
