Visitors to SPI will find CertainTeed at booth #5329 displaying products that include the newly-enhanced Solstice, CertainTeed’s rack-mounted PV system, and the popular Apollo II and Apollo Tile II integrated PV systems.

Solstice, CertainTeed’s rack-mounted solar solution, is outfitted with high-performance panels, inverters, racking and flashing. Solstice utilizes CertainTeed’s 60-cell monocrystalline or polycrystalline panels with power ratings from 260W to 285W. These modules are available in a variety of black and white frame and backsheet combinations and can be paired with string or microinverters, offering flexibility to fit the needs of any installation.

CertainTeedCertainTeed’s Apollo II solar roofing system features 60-watt monocrystalline integrated PV panels, combining greater efficiency and unmatched aesthetics with easy wiring and installation. Its black frame, cells and backsheet and low profile design fully integrate with asphalt roofing shingles for a clean, seamless appearance. Weighing only 12 pounds, Apollo II does not require structural reinforcement or evaluation and is attached directly to the roof sheathing. It has a Class A fire rating and 110 mph wind rating.

CertainTeed tileCertainTeed offers Apollo Tile II for integration with flat, concrete tile roofs. It weighs in at only 13-pounds per module and features a natural brown frame, black cells and black backsheet for extraordinary curb appeal. Apollo Tile II also carries Class A fire and 110 mph wind rating.

“In a market where many companies are just getting started, CertainTeed has been a driving force behind roofing innovation for more than 100 years,” says Mark Stancroff, director of CertainTeed Solar. “For SPI 2015 we are going all out with a product showcase that offers visitors a hands-on look at our complete line of solar products.”

But maybe more important than anything above, Stancroff added that CertainTeed offers one of most robust warranties in the industry, covering both the system and its installation when the setup is performed by a CertainTeed Credentialed Solar Installer. If the homeowner also has a CertainTeed roof, everything on the roof is warrantied by one company, providing confidence to homeowners that their most valuable asset – their home – is protected.
