Industry leader EcoFasten Solar designs, engineers, and manufactures patented, watertight solar roof mounts. The company provides mounting solutions that are easy to install, cost-effective, rugged in fabrication, and unsurpassed in quality. Comprised of a seasoned and growing team of professionals with talent, ability, and drive, all EcoFasten Solar products are precision-designed with the installer in mind.
Committed to the connection
We all know that to mount a solar panel to a roof, you need to know as much about the roof construction as you do about the panel function. In fact, you need to know more. Founded by a former roofer with decades of hands-on experience, EcoFasten Solar is the company that was born to bridge the gap between the people who design the solar arrays and the people who install them.
EcoFasten Solar roof mounts and components utilize the same patented watertight compression technology that has been used by its Sister company, Alpine SnowGuards, in the rooftop mounted snow retention industry since the mid-1990’s. This simple, yet secure technology creates an impermeable moisture barrier under even the most extreme conditions.
All EcoFasten Solar products are rugged by design, employing fabrication and quality manufacturing principles that will maintain the integrity of the roof without voiding roofing manufacturer’s warranties. Every EcoFasten product meets roofing industry best practices, as well as International Building Codes, International Residential Building Codes, and State Building Codes.
There’s a good reason the top installers in the U.S. rely on EcoFasten Solar:
- Fastest, easiest, most straightforward installs in the industry
- Most cost effective solutions available
- Versatile designs for all roof types – new or retrofit
- Patented, watertight compression technology
DESIGN PROCESS
By identifying customer needs and voids in the marketplace, the EcoFasten Solar Product Development and Engineering teams utilize advanced engineering techniques in order to manufacture easy to install solar roof mounts that make sense.
TESTING INFORMATION
All products are rigorously tested in-house to ensure top-notch workmanship that is compliant with, and meets or exceeds industry standards and best practices. Products are also beta tested in the field, which provides valuable feedback and additional industry insight. Lastly, products are sent to 3rd party testing facilities where several performance modes are implemented to guarantee overall success of the products design and technical development. Testing protocols include allowable load limits, maximum pullout weights, shear, and rain testing to ensure every product is impermeable to water infiltration.
The extensive EcoFasten Solar line is comprised of a series of product systems characterized by roof type application. Each system can be paired with a wide variety of bracket options, allowing installers to attach EcoFasten Solar roof mounts to almost any racking option.
