In-Roof System Design and Installation
This project involved the installation of an integrated in-roof solar system, requiring careful planning and precision at every stage. The existing roof tiles were methodically removed to create space for the solar array, allowing the panels to be recessed directly into the roof structure.
The 10 AIKO Neostar all black panels were then installed using an in-roof mounting system, ensuring a flush finish that blends seamlessly with the surrounding roof. This approach not only enhances the visual appearance of the property but also reduces wind uplift compared to traditional on-roof systems.
Due to the nature of in-roof installations, accuracy is critical. Insolation Solar’s experienced team ensured the system was installed to exact specifications, maintaining both weatherproofing and long-term durability.
Battery Storage and Energy Efficiency
To maximise the benefits of the solar PV system, the installation was paired with a 5.1kWh EcoFlow battery. This allows the homeowner to store unused solar energy generated during the day and use it when required, particularly during the evening when demand is higher.
This setup significantly improves energy efficiency within the home and reduces reliance on grid electricity. Based on projected performance, the system is expected to eliminate the homeowner’s electricity bills, with the potential for surplus energy generation.
Environmental Impact
This in-roof solar installation delivers meaningful environmental benefits, helping to reduce the property’s overall carbon footprint. The system generates clean, renewable energy equivalent to planting 21 trees each year, avoids approximately 345 litres of petrol consumption, and prevents around 392kg of coal from being burned annually.
By investing in solar energy, the homeowner is contributing to a more sustainable energy future while reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
Financial Performance
With an estimated annual generation of 5,366kWh, this will wipe out their electricity bill leaving them in credit.
As energy prices continue to fluctuate, installing an in-roof solar PV system provides increased control over energy usage and protects against rising electricity costs.
A Tailored Approach to In-Roof Solar
In-roof solar panel installations require a different level of planning and expertise compared to standard systems. Insolation Solar works closely with homeowners to design systems that not only perform efficiently but also integrate seamlessly with the property.
From initial design and tile removal through to installation and commissioning, every stage of this project was handled with precision to ensure a high-quality finish.
