  Take a look at the Powers ballasted ground mount. Can go up to 5 high in landscape.

  Does anyone have a recommendation for ballasted ground mount arrays, primarily residential (<50kw). We have used the Schletter PVMax system that worked well, looking for a lower cost to install and improved delivery from time of order. Most of our system are designed with the panels 4 high in landscape.

  Anyone try the Zilla system with the helical screws? I’m normally a pole mount guy but planning a ground mount with Zilla next spring. I like the idea of the helical screw as it is less evasive. The only down fall I see is that you can’t get it off the ground more than 24” which may become an issue in the winter months.

  Thanks,

  Christopher

  We have used Schletter, it was spected on a project and i was not that impressed, took to long to get what we needed and when it was all done it works but l like what we have better. I have no reason to stock another product line.

  Chris,

  I've used these a few times.  I would say they were successful.

  What sort of questions do you have?

  Has anyone had success using Schletter FS racking system?  I am having a hard time talking to their people, and getting answers to some information to price the project.

  Thank you, Chris
