Solar Panel Attaching - TJ Clark - 07-23-2022

I am looking for information on best practices of attaching solar panels to the roof of my coach. 

Any comments appreciated. 


Thanks in advance. I appreciate your thoughts.

My panels were originally installed by AM Solar (Springfield, OR), and they use a two sided tape (3M) under the stainless steel feet,  and then cover the feet with Dicor (lap sealant...self leveling). No screws used.  I recently reoriented two of my panels using the same method. My panels have been in the roof for over 10 years with no issues.

We were considering solar; was it a hassle to get the wires down to the bay with the inverter(s)?

Thank you.
