Hi Dave
Perfect! I forgot about the SolaDeck, I believe they're even in stock
locally.
Thanks

Rich,

We have been using SolaDeck PV roof mount enclosure. NEMA 3R with a flashed
penetration. Can use for combining, or simply as a pass through box.

Wrenches,
We typically run conduit for roof mounts over the edge of the roof to the
eaves, rather than penetrate the roof whenever possible. An upcoming
installation on an freshly asphalt shingled roof requires that we penetrate
the roof for the conduit run (Enphase). I'm wondering if there are any
suggestions for preferred flashing products and best known practices. It's
always seemed to me that the typical Oatey type flashing dries and cracks
eventually.
Thanks for your insights..
Rich
