Sorry, but I'm the wrong one to ask. I guess I wasn't clear: I
haven't done <i>any</i> off-grid adjustable roof-mounted arrays in
recent years. DP&W Power-Fab was the best I found way back when.<br>

I haven't had any off grid, adjustable roof mount systems in
years, but
have one coming up. What is the best product these days?<br>
Thanks,<br>

All of our off grid is residential. In general we never do
ground mount
for off grid. With rare and specific exception we use pole-top
racking.
This is simply because pole top racks hold the entire array in
balance
over a single pivot, making seasonal adjustment easy for one
person.
Ground mount puts the pivot at the bottom edge of an array,
requiring at
least two people to adjust: one or more to lift and one to
loosen/tighten
the leg sliders. <br>
<br>
Knowing the depth of your professional competence, you know this
already,
and this request is about a specific job. But most off-grid
Wrenches may
be in the same case, and thus not able to easily answer your
question.<br>
<br>
Having used UniRac a few times for adjustable roof/ground
racking, I
certainly would recommend against their adjustable tilt legs.
Too easy
for homeowners to loosen the pinch bolt too far and lose the
twist-nut.
In years past (I haven't used it in recent years) DP&W made
good
adjustable racking.<br>
