Nik,

             This sounds like a new install.  Many times I'll suggest to 
a customer to "see how it goes" with something like this.  It may turn 
out to be a very occasional event that they are willing to accept, and 
thus reduce the another failure point factor.  Do you have a snow issue 
there also?  Its possible the lower edge of the PV frame will slow it 
down a bit?
