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:
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.
COMPOSITION SHINGLE ROOFING The GreenFasten™ GF1 bracket system is designed to be installed on most new or existing (retrofit) composition shingle roofs for solar panel applications, and is accepted by most major roofing material manufacturers without voiding warranties. The GreenFasten™ GF1 system features a patented, watertight seal compatible with a variety of bracket options. Backed by IAPMO Certification. Watch the install video here.
COMPOSITION SHINGLE OR TILE ROOFING Rock-It System is our all new rail-free solar roof mount solution that conforms to UL Subject 2703. The system has been certified to the UL1703 / UL 2703 Fire Certification standards, and holds a Class A designation when used with Type 1, listed PV modules.
Top-down leveling allows the installer the freedom to level during and/or after project completion, while the North-South adjustability of up to 4" provides an extremely fast, easy, no-hassle installation.
Rock-It System was designed for installation on new or existing (retrofit) composition shingle roofs.
Conforming to UL 2703 First Edition, Rock-It System 2.0 is our newest rail-free solar roof mount solution.
Like our original Rock-It System, the unique top-down leveling feature allows the installer to level the array during or after the install.
Rock-It System 2.0 employs a streamlined design for a lightweight, durable system, utilizes North-South adjustability and provides an extremely fast, easy, no-hassle installation.
Rock-It System 2.0 was designed for installation on new or existing (retrofit) composition shingle and tile roofs.
LOW-SLOPE OR FLAT ROOFING The SimpleGrip-SQ System is a solar roof mount, engineered and manufactured specifically for use on low-slope/flat roofs. The SimpleGrip System can be customized with different EcoFasten Solar attachment bracket options, providing a customized solution for most low slope roof applications.
SimpleGrip is designed to be attached to new or existing (retrofit) roofs.
CORRUGATED METAL ROOFING Universal design works as a hinge to fit all profiles. North-South adjustment allows for ease of installation, and 5 fastener points ensure optimal strength. Pre-applied gasket tape prevents leaks. Attaches to the side of the ribs, not in the valley, where water flows and moisture accumulates. Ideal for both commercial and residential applications, with a strong pullout value. See it in action as seen at Intersolar 2014.
FLAT, W or S TILE ROOFING Flashing replaces one complete tile, and has been extensively tested for pullout and shear. Attaches to the roof deck with as little as 2 lag bolts. Multiple fastener holes in the system’s base plate allow for attachment into the rafter, regardless of the flashing alignment. Available in profiles for flat, W or S tile roofing applications. As with all of our products, the Tile Flashing System meets or exceeds all roofing industry best practices, and was engineered to be rugged, versatile, simple and secure. Made in the USA.
SOLAR PANELS From our Sister Company, Alpine SnowGuards, Solar SnowMax was designed and engineered specifiaclly for use on solar panels. Fabricated from Aircraft Grade Aluminum for use on portrait or landscape solar panel orientation.
