Tesla Solar Panels On Clay Tile Roof

Does anyone have experience installing tesla solar panels on a clay tile roof.

Tesla solar panels on clay tile roof.

I explained that our roof was recently redone 2011 with a modified bitumen torch down underlayment instead of traditional felt paper. We have a spanish tile roof and i was recently told by a tesla energy sales rep that they will not install solar panels over clay tiles. The tesla solar tiles are also exceptionally durable made with a tempered glass that s going to be more long lasting than standard roofing tiles. Solar roof tiles are more than three times stronger than standard roofing tiles and are engineered for all weather protection.

You have to remove the tiles first put a flat layer like shingles where the panels will go install the panels and then come back at the end and place the clay tiles so it blends into the rest of the roof. Today the tesla solar roof is only available as a textured tile but three additional versions are expected including a spanish tile look slate tile look and a modern smooth tile. Clearly integrating solar tiles into the roof system itself is going to be more pleasing to the eye than traditional solar panels. With a 25 year warranty solar roof lasts longer than an average roof and protects your home for decades to come.

If aesthetics are important to you and you have a lot of cash to devote to this kind of installation they may be worth a look. Tesla has created solar roof tiles which are made to mimic the tuscan look of clay tiles. In fact tesla declined to even schedule a visit to work up a quote.
