Flashing is the only way to insure that you don't have to use that
liability insurance & that the install is water tight. I would
speak to the inspector & try to work out proper flashings installed
in the future & see if he will waive the removal & replacment
of the exisiting installs.</font></span></div>

</font></div>
<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>
