Solar or not?

FYI.....

When I installed my flexible panels, I put down these corrugated plastic sheets with 2-sided Eternabond.

The flexible panels have 6 brass grommets around the edge so I installed some threaded mounting posts to the back of the corrugated panels so I could screw the panels into place with stainless screws.

This way I did not have to drill into the roof to mount the panels. The corrugated plastic base is permanently attached with Eternabond and they provide a little heat dissipation as well since air can flow through the corrugation. If I ever need to replace a panel, it will be a 5-minute job to remove 6 screws.

My original install was to use Eternabond to tape them directly to the roof but this way works out much better if they need to be removed.

Here are some pics.....
