About

For almost 10 years Solar Frame Solutions has been designing and building innovative ways of generating more solar power in less space. Our third patent received is for the 3D Attic Mount Solar Assembly. This is a custom-made, three-dimensional device that consists of 4 side solar panels and one bottom solar panel. It is primarily used in new construction and remodels. The Assembly is mounted in the attic space of the building and the roof opening is hermetically sealed with a custom-made sky light. This keeps the solar panels protected from dirt, dust, pollen, hail, bird poop, snow loading and wind loading. Since the installation is in the attic, there are no unsightly conduits, hardware, cables, or solar panels themselves on the roof.

With an aesthetically pleasing look, the next thought is production. The Assembly has a nameplate rating of 590W. We used PVsyst software to determine output of the Assembly versus a Tier-One 410W conventional solar module. The results were staggering - the SFS Assembly produces 81% more power than the conventional modules compared. This represents a huge breakthrough for solar. Increasing power output is key for everyone involved in the solar industry. This includes builders, developers, general contractors, installers, solar companies, and especially home owners. The end user will reap the benefits of having an energy system that is efficient, productive, simple to maintain, and is easy on the eyes.
