<p><font face="Verdana">Thanks Jason. I<font face="Verdana"> have
been inv<font face="Verdana">olved with educating firefighters
on solar as par<font face="Verdana">t of my work and access
is always an issue. So, I tell the customer that we are
goi<font face="Verdana">ng to extend the rails <font
face="Verdana">past the <font face="Verdana">array
with an attachment so that we can access the roof
and so can others. <font face="Verdana">They did
not r<font face="Verdana">em<font face="Verdana">ember
that. </font></font></font> It has a<font
face="Verdana">n RS combiner on the roof<font
face="Verdana"> with a switch. <font
face="Verdana">The roof pi<font face="Verdana">tch
<font face="Verdana">i<font face="Verdana">s
12/12 with a <font face="Verdana">ba<font
face="Verdana">dly graded fro<font
face="Verdana">nt that prec<font

getting to the west part. The
roof was abo<font face="Verdana">ut
45<font face="Verdana">' above
the ground. </font></font>We
worked wi<font face="Verdana">th
harnesses and needed the extra
rail to work safely and not
destroy the shingles.</font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></p>

<p>A customer has asked that I look into painting the
exposed parts of the anodized rails on their roof
mounted system to more closely match the shingles. (New
construction, we did not know what the shingle color was
going to be, and I have to say, I did not ask). Has
anyone any experience with this? Thank you for any
help. Chris<br>
