  2. Overview • Who is Quick Mount PV? • Past Mounting Systems, Revisited • Problems in the industry • Solar Roofing Best Practices • The Quick Mount Goals: • Code Compliance • Fastest Installation & High Quality • Longevity & Aesthetic Appeal • Compatibility With All Racking Systems www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 2

  3. Overview • Quick Mount PV Products • Composition Mounts • Shake & Slate Mounts • Universal Tile Mount • Flat Tile Mount • Low Slope Mount • Conduit Mount • Accessories & Tools • Quick Mount PV Website www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 3

  4. Born In The Trades • Founded in 2006 by Stuart and Claudia Wentworth • Family business with over 20 years experience in metal fabrication, green building and solar • Extensive experience with PV installation • Committed to the future of solar power & sustainability • Dedicated to quality, code-compliant solar installations www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 4

  5. Why Respect The Roof? “ …80% of all construction related litigation stems from water intrusion. ” - Rob Hernandez Pitched Roof Racking SolarPro November 2008 It only takes a single leak to cause callbacks, roof damage, bad reputation, or even a lawsuit. www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 5

  6. Think Like A Roofer • Solar installers must think and act like roofers when stepping onto a roof to make penetrations. • Who would install a skylight or vent jack without complete waterproof flashing? • How would a roofer approach mounting PV or solar thermal panels to a customer ’ s roof? • How do we maintain roof warranties? • What is “ code ” for solar mounting systems? www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 6

  7. What ’ s Wrong With This Picture? www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 7

  8. Past Methods It might look okay at first… Unflashed mounts were typical in the early days of solar and may have even passed inspection. www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 8

  9. Past Methods ... but over time leaks and corrosion are inevitable. …with sealant but no Attaching brackets or L feet …leads to corrosion and flashing… directly to a composition leakage at the penetration. roof… www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 9

  10. Improvements along the way… Not all flashed mounts are equally effective. www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 10

  11. Quick Mount PV Products The recognized standard for 100% code-compliant, watertight roof mounts Meet/exceed NRCA & • TRI standards and best practices Meet IBC, UBC, IRC, SBC • Patented waterproofing • technology Up to 50-year life • All aluminum flashing • and mount Stainless steel hardware • www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 11

  12. Wheel Of Accountability See our website for full information on the relationships between code makers, code enforcers and the solar installer. www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 12

  13. Many Roofing Codes Come Into Play A Few Key Points: ‣ IBC/IRC/SBC : Flashing required at all roof penetrations ‣ NRCA Best Practices: No exposed fasteners on shingle roofs ‣ SMACNA: No galvanized on roofs exceeding 15-year lifespan www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 13

  14. Classic Composition Mount Our Best-Selling Mount ICC-ES tested and certified • Approved by GAF/Elk & Owen ’ s Corning • Patented waterproofing technology • One-bolt installation • No shingle cutting • 100% code compliant • Simple installation meets or exceeds • codes & NRCA Best Practices All aluminum flashing with stainless steel • hardware included Works with all standard racking systems • www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 14

  15. Superior Waterproofing Technology Two EPDM rubber washers lock out moisture. Resistance to heat, ozone and weather means years of effective use. Thicker all-aluminum flashing and mount have 50-year life Patented technology allows a expectancy. strong, permanently watertight seal without welding. All stainless steel hardware included. www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 15

  16. Designed By Installers For Installers Practicality on the roof must be considered Reasons for oversizing: • Wind driven rain • Extra flashing for missed pilot holes 4 in. (code) 6 in. (QM) .032 in. (code) .050 in. (QM) www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 16

  17. Extremely Fast & Easy Installation 2. Drill ¼ ” pilot hole for lag bolt. 1. Lift shingle and clear nails. 3. Add roof sealant to pilot hole. 4. Slide Quick Mount into place. www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 17

  18. Extremely Fast & Easy Installation 6. Add EPDM rubber gasket. 5. Drive hanger bolt into rafter. 7. Attach preferred rails. 8. Move on to the next row. www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 18

  19. Faster Installation Means More Profit “ Quick Mount PV saves our crew at least four hours per job– and with zero chance of leaks. ” - Matt Steiner Plumbing, Electric & Heating Better Engineering • Further Spans • Less Roof Penetrations • Lower Cost www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 19

  20. Quality Speaks stronger engineering = further spans = less roof penetrations = LOWER COST www.quickmountpv.com 10/13/11 20
