Hi Dave,
As far as I know, you don’t supply the pipe, it is included with the unit, so no choice there.

I live in VT, where they are manufactured, and have seen dozens of them installed across the state, as well as having inspected a number of them in New York State.

Dear people: Well, I've found these folks: https://www.allearthrenewables.com/the-allearth-solar-tracker ...but after several inquiries and contacting a couple of their alleged dealers, I still cannot get any pricing or availability information, or even if this is a real product. C'est la vie!
Best,

Hi Chris,
If you find something please let us know. You are right, the old (no longer made) AZ 125 from Wattsun was the best. 2KW tracked on a 6 inch pole. Mix that in with a ground array and you have a really nice system. The AZ 225 is too heavy on the 8 inch pipe without a backhoe, especially on a hill.

Yes, I know what Wattsun has to offer, but some customers are looking for something MUCH smaller. Thanks Dave!

Have you looked at the Wattsun HZLA? No ladders and with the right module about 5KW tracked. Perfect for long hours of cooling or pumping. http://www.wattsun.com/products/accutrak-hzla-tracker

Chris,
We have used AER for trackers. We've had good success with them.

I see a lot of AllEarth Renewables trackers here in the Northeast.

Dear people:
Now that Zomeworks is more-or-less down the tubes, what resources do you have for a residential tracking system? Wattsun's 'one size fits all' really doesn't (and I don't need a need a lecture of ROI for buying more modules versus a tracker). I'm just wondering if there are more options besides the utility grade models. We have a great pole mount supplier – but some folks want a tracker. I'm looking forward to your responses.
