Unisolar Laminates [RE-wrenches]

[Matt Tritt]

<x-flowed>

Hi David,

About the oldest system I've installed is going on 7 years, and no 
problems at all. If anything, it has performed better than the 
crystaline modules of similar rating and size in Northern San Luis 
Obispo County, California, that we have monitored. This area gets very 
hot, so that has a lot to do with the difference, I'm sure. No problems 
with the glue, and rain seems to clean the modules well without crawling 
around on a 12 in 12 roof.

Originally, the PVL's had some kind of sticky-back that wasn't so great 
in high heat, if the recommended safety screws at the top of the modules 
weren't used. The newer stuff is great.
