About Snow guards by roof type: Solar panels
Snow guards by roof type: Solar panels
Alpine SnowGuards innovated the first and only solar management system on the market. It was launched in 2012 and has evolved into a three-component system that is recommended for all roof mounted or car port solar arrays in snowy regions with a pitch of 2/12 or greater. Snow and ice can avalanche off a sloped pitch, posing a hazard to people and property below. Together, the system holds snow and ice in position. By doing so, snow and ice melt and shed gradually, instead of all at once, preventing injuries to pedestrians and property damage. Our research shows our solar snow management system provides minimal shading and does not adversely affect solar energy collection.
