<html><head><style type="text/css"><!-- DIV {margin:0px;} --></style></head><body><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12pt">Who can help:<br> One of our local jurisdictions, City of Petaluma, is beginning to require flashed footings under all solar arrays. I think that some flashed footings are better than the Unirac L feet or Prosolar's TileTrac foot, but the flashed footings cost a lot more $, and some flashed footing products seem flawed (less watertight) They are asking me to uninstall two commissioned systems from last week, and replace the footings with flashed Fast Jacks, even though the documents detailed the penetration method. <br><div> I am looking for some good info that supports flexible installation methods, including caulked footings. Our industry has come a long way from the early days of racking on slotted angle iron with steel L-brackets for feet, but
those experiences tend to give me confidence in continuing to use caulked footings. </div>Nick Soleil<br>Project Manager<br>Advanced Alternative Energy Solutions, LLC<br>PO Box 657<br>Petaluma, CA 94953<br>Cell: 707-321-2937<br>Office: 707-789-9537<br>Fax: 707-769-9037<div><br></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><font size="2" face="Tahoma"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></b></font><meta http-equiv="x-dns-prefetch-control" content="on"></div></div>
