  • Please contact your local installer to obtain a turnkey proposal cost with Sunflare modules plus the additional electrical components, labor, permitting etc. Solar modules are just one piece of the system- so it’s best to speak to an installer who can discuss all aspects of the equipment and installation.

  • Sunflare recommends that a licensed solar installer or electrician oversee all aspects of the installation.

  • The PowerFit product is currently only available for residential and commercial use.

  • This is currently not possible as the adhesive used is not meant for vertical applications.

  • Although the module curves up to 30%, we are currently investigating how much curvature can be allowed for the PF20 wire management system.

  • Yes, any of Sunflare’s modules can be used with a battery system and can be either grid-tied or off-grid.

  • Below are pictures of a PowerFit module in natural light as well as a Pantone swatch. Pantone colors are meant to be viewed on printed paper- not a screen- but it is close enough for reference for customers wishing to order their roof to match the color of the solar modules. All Sunflare products use the same panel and cell materials.

  • No. Solar installers and electricians can order Sunflare products through their local CED Greentech electrical supplier.

  • Utility companies have different rules for how much you are allowed to oversize your solar system. Some will only allow a system size equal to your last 12 months of consumption history. Check with your local utility or solar installer for details. An additional concern would be the limits of your existing electric service panel for an over-sized solar system. Your installer will be able to evaluate your home’s electrical capabilities.

  • A- Every utility territory has different rules for self-generators (homes and businesses with solar). Net Energy Metering (NEM) export compensation for excess energy produced and exported to the grid is typically reflected as monthly credits against the times you used electricity but the sun wasn’t shining (your modules were not producing). Check with your local utility for the details.

  • The Investment Tax Credit is currently available for solar installations and can be carried over 5 years. Sunflare Solar cannot provide tax advice. Please consult with your CPA or tax advisor.

  • It’s best to find a local installer who has experience with applying for this Federal Program. Here is the link for more information

  • There is no need for any special certification. Any licensed solar installer or electrician can install our products. Sunflare modules are easy to install, and use standard electrical components and wiring procedures. We have resources available to installers such as manuals, videos, and personalized support though Zoom calls.

  • Volume discounts begin at the container level- roughly 2,000 modules depending on the SKU. SKUs may be mixed.

  • Please contact your local Greentech CED. They are the distributor of Sunflare products for residential and commercial applications.

  • Yes, but we recommend them due to their small size and low cost. The AP Smart components come with clips and easily fit under a standing seam roof ridge cap, although they can be exposed to open air. You need one per 6 PowerFit modules.

  • For new construction, a plan with the General Contractor for housing the cables and RSD devices along wall flashing or other space can be determined. UV resistant PVC wire management conduit and raceways can be used for housing components and painted to match the roof. For existing standing seam roofs, UV resistant PVC can be used as housing at the top or in an inconspicuous place. Please follow this link to see renderings of suggestions for alternative wire management solutions where there is no ridgecap available.

  • No, but there is a limit of 6 PowerFit modules per RSD. Please consult the Sunflare Installation Manual for more details.

  • The wiring diagram in the PowerFit Installation Manual should be enough of an example for any electrical or solar installer to understand the wiring of this system.

  • 7.5’ or 12’ cables must be purchased through Sunflare or a certified Sunflare supplier.

  • The LiteMount60 should be installed with the same setbacks and walkways as any traditional modules. PowerFit20 and FLEX60 products do not require fire setbacks, however, every jurisdiction is different and should be consulted with.
