YES – You can Install Solar on Slate Roofs in Connecticut

Connecticut has many affluent homeowners who are interested in the many incentives the state provides for choosing solar. There’s a 26% federal tax credit, and homeowners are exempt from property tax increases based on the installation of the solar system as well as the sales tax on the purchase of the system.

Many of these affluent homeowners have homes with slate roofs. Slate roofs have many benefits, including the fact they’re gorgeous, durable, fireproof, and extremely long lasting. But nothing is completely perfect. Slate roofs have long been perceived as being unsuitable for solar installation. This is because the fragile slate roofing tiles shatter, chip and break when mounting holes are drilled in the wrong spot.

Here’s the workaround that allows you, as a solar installation professional, to confidently and quickly install solar systems on slate roofs. Designed by a solar professional for other solar professionals, the Solar Slate Plate makes it possible to quickly and accurately drill mounting holes in slate roofing tile without causing any damage.

When your crew has the Solar Slate Plate, you don’t have to worry about their measuring skills – or lack thereof. You don’t have to worry about your crew drilling mounting holes based on their instinct or best guess and causing damage that you have to pay for. It’s so simple to use that it takes less than half a day to master use of the Solar Slate Plate. And best of all, it’s priced for small business owners.
