It is not necessary or advisable to use nails or other fasteners to secure the perimeter of
the ashing.
n
The E-Mount is made to work with standard and high-denition composition/asphalt and wood
shingle roofs with 5" to 5-5/8" courses. If the exposed surface of the course exceeds this measure
-
ment you may need to use our Classic Shake Mount instead.
n
Depending on the season and climate, size and location of seal tabs, and quality of the shingles,
the seal tabs that adhere the shingle courses together may not eectively seal the shingles to the
ashings. If this is the case, simply add several quarter-sized dabs of manufacturer accepted sealant
or asphalt roong cement, meeting ASTM D 4586 Type II, between the ashing and the shingle
above.
n
Mounts should not be installed in areas of the roof susceptible to ice damming. Water ponding un-
der the shingles can reach the bolt penetration.
n
Take care not to damage the roong material while working on the roof. Removing stone granules
and deforming the shingles in any way can shorten the lifespan of the roong. The value of the solar
array is directly aected by the condition of the roof it is attached to.
