The Clenergy PV-ezRack SolarRoof Pro Slate Roof Hook is designed for professional solar installers and homeowners looking to mount solar arrays on residential slate roofs with sarking. This mounting solution offers an efficient way to secure solar panels without compromising the roof's integrity, though it requires specific attention to the installation sequence due to the delicate nature of slate tiles.

No, this specific model is engineered specifically for the geometry and installation requirements of slate roofing.
Clenergy products generally carry a comprehensive warranty; please check your specific purchase documentation or the Clenergy website for local terms.
The hooks are manufactured from high-quality stainless steel to ensure durability and prevent rust in coastal or high-moisture environments.
Standard roofing tools are required, including a drill with the correct bits for timber rafters and basic hand tools for adjusting tiles and tightening clamps.
The hook works with the PV-ezRack rail system, which is compatible with most standard residential solar panels on the market today.
Verify that the hook base plate is firmly anchored into the rafter and that the fastener was not over-torqued during initial installation.
Ensure that all hooks are aligned along the same vertical plane using a string line before fully tightening the hook-to-rail clamps.
Check that the sarking membrane was correctly sealed with proper flashing tape or sealant during the installation phase.
To install, first locate the roof rafters through the slate tiles and carefully remove or shift tiles to expose the mounting surface. Fix the base plate of the hook directly into the rafter, ensuring that any penetration through the sarking is sealed with appropriate waterproof flashing material. Once the hook is secured, replace the slate tiles around the hook shank. The rail is then attached to the hook using the provided cross-connection components. Compatibility is limited to the Clenergy PV-ezRack rail series. Maintenance should include an annual inspection to ensure that all bolts remain tight and that there is no movement in the slate tiles surrounding the hook entry point.
