I was at the Midwest Roofing Contractors Association show a
couple of weeks ago and one of the vendors in the exhibit hall
was OMG Roofing Products.<br>

Would this product be applicable to your needs? <a

<b><u>Excerpt From Product Cut-Sheet</u></b>:<br>
<i>OMG PowerGrip is a roof mount system designed to secure
rooftop solar racks and other equipment to roofs covered with
thermoplastic (TPO and PVC) roof's membranes. PowerGrip
provides a secure connection directly to the roof deck or
structural members. Once heat welded in place, properly
installed PowerGrips virtually eliminate rack movement and
remain watertight. Factory fabricated PowerGrips are
easy-to-install and can be made with any TPO or PVC membrane
on the market for 100% compatibility with the roofing system.
Since they eliminate the need to cut open the roof down to the
deck, PowerGrips help save valuable time and labor. In
addition, PowerGrips can be used with most solar rack systems
currently available. </i><br>

<div>Hello Wrenches,</div>

Installing rail mounted PV array on a 2 1/2 / 12 pitch EPDM
residential roof. It's a flat section of roof in the middle of the
house. Need to keep it low so would like to use 3" or 4" Unirac
standoffs. The standard 1-6" peel and stick witches hat is fine
for a 7" standoff but too tall for the 3-4" standoff. Unirac and
Oatey have advised against using the Oatey aluminum flashing
although the roofer who did the roof said it would be OK using
seam tape between the Oatey and the EPDM. Another roofer I know
has said absolutely not.
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>I did find a rubber Masterflash (6" x 6" base) that's a good
fit but all their images show it used on metal roofs only and
it's not a peel and stick. Can I use it with seam tape and/or
caulking.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Do I just need to go with the 7" standoff and the standard
peel and stick witches hat and forget the low profile?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Or is their some other system out there (roof
attachment/flashing) that would keep it low. The ridge height is
already at the 35 ft limit and the upper row of mod's would go
above the ridge with the 7" standoff.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I will work with a roofer but would like to figure this out
before just turning it over to the roofer</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Very much appreciate any thoughts.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you and Happy New Year to you all.</div>
