The Clenergy Hook Rest Rubber Tile (H-Rest) is an essential installation component designed for solar installers and roofing professionals working with Plain or Rosemary tiles. Its primary benefit is the prevention of cracked roof tiles by providing a stable, protective barrier between the roof hook and the tile, effectively distributing pressure during the mounting process. While it provides critical structural integrity, users must ensure the specific tile profile is compatible with the H-Rest dimensions to achieve a flush fit before securing the roof hook.

No, the H-Rest is specifically designed for use with Plain and Rosemary roof tiles.
Yes, it is designed to be installed as a direct replacement for the tile underneath the roof hook.
The H-Rest is made from durable materials designed for long-term outdoor exposure; however, routine inspection is recommended.
It is necessary to prevent tile cracking caused by the pressure and load applied to the roof hook during the solar installation process.
Its primary function is to distribute mechanical load and protect the structural integrity of the roof tiles beneath the hooks.
Ensure the H-Rest is seated flush against the roof battens and the roof hook is correctly tightened to the rail structure.
Verify that the specific tile profile matches the H-Rest requirements and check for debris or unevenness in the batten alignment.
To install the H-Rest, first remove the existing tile where the roof hook is scheduled for placement. Position the rubber hook rest firmly into the tile course. Once seated, mount the roof hook over the rest, ensuring the hook shank passes through without causing the rest to buckle. The H-Rest is designed specifically for Plain and Rosemary tiles; do not attempt to force it onto tiles with different profiles or thicknesses. Periodically inspect the roof hooks and rest components during routine solar system maintenance to ensure the material remains flexible and that no movement or friction wear has occurred.
