The hole you made to hit the rafter and the hole you made to miss the rafter are the only two you need to know center or close enough anyway. At the end of the job that’s a lot of unnecessary holes if you add up all the third holes. Flashing covering them or not. It’s just best practice, fewer holes the better and less chances for a leak

Raysolar, why don't you use the roof flashing that has the 3" standoff made to it, with the 3" screw on watertight standoff that covers the rafter bolt, that you mount the rail to. No RTV sealant needed and it cannot leak ever

I would love to see the engineering testing done on these mounts. They look like they would be very waterproof except they would have a weakness for driving rain. I would like to know if they can stand up to Florida wind.

Have you tried the new Iron Ridge HUG system? It doesn't use flashings - is it good?
@raysolarmadeeasy
@raysolarmadeeasy 6 месяцев назад
We have not used the Hug System. The mechanical flashing approach demonstrated here has proven itself and has never leaked. Thanks for your comment.

What do you think of using a thermal camera for locating the truss?
@raysolarmadeeasy
@raysolarmadeeasy 10 месяцев назад
That would be an option as long as there’s a temperature contrast in the roofing materials to detect it.

This is a very good movie. There are always some assholes Don’t know anything, but they know everything better. It’s more important to make an extra hole to find the center then have her Hurrican takeoff all the solar panels. And one little extra holes can be siliconed And never leak.

Wouldn't a stud finder work?
@raysolarmadeeasy
@raysolarmadeeasy 10 месяцев назад
It would not in this case as your decking is plywood and the stud finder would not detect the stud correctly.

Don’t you want to put in 2 lag screws to properly attach the hardware. 1 is a pivot, 2 is a line and a lock

Flashing is the only way worth doing,but the one he used is not it,if you need rtv sealant,don't do it.. Mine is similar to this but a 3" standoff made to it,bolt through the center standoff,with a screw on watertight 3" standoff on top of that covering the bolt,rails bolt to that. The only way this could leak is to be ripped off the roof,best in the business and will outlast your roof. JM2C

I do not want my roof as your test mouse. You drill 3 holes to know the right place to mount the flash. Sorry man. If you do not have any better way to know where you should mount the flash then you are NOT working on my roof.

How many holes can you drill in a truss before it snaps?
@diyrenewableenergyelectron4996
@diyrenewableenergyelectron4996 9 месяцев назад
It’s better to have a few small holes to know the lag bolt is centered in the rafter rather than “maybe” hitting the rafter and having your array rip away from your roof in a windstorm. Uplift is a thing and a sealed hole is cheap insurance.
@diyrenewableenergyelectron4996
@diyrenewableenergyelectron4996 9 месяцев назад
Chiptoolz makes a rafter centerline finder tool. Still have to add an extra hole, but it marks dead center of the rafter.
