CertainTeed Apollo – Solar PV Shingles

Description

Apollo Solar Roofing is the versatile solution for maximum power and flexibility in installation directly on new or existing roofs. Apollo generates power from high-efficiency polycrystalline solar cells mounted in arrays that produce 12 watts per square foot – more than double the output of some other technologies. That means significantly smaller arrays are needed to generate the same amount of power.

Average Price: Varies with roof

Warranties: 25 Year power generation

CertainTeed’s Apollo is an innovative solar roof system which is covered by a standard limited warranty. The Standard Apollo warranty document fully explains how CertainTeed supports its roofing product with the strongest warranty protection available. Please read the warranty carefully. It lists the specific Apollo components that are covered and the period of time for which they are covered.

Pros:

Cons:

  • The fully integrated look can be retrofitted for existing systems or installed along with your new CertainTeed shingle roof
  • Lightweight, no need for rack mount or structural reinforcement
  • 25-year power generation warranty

 

  • May cost a bit more than the standard PV panels that you see everywhere else. We think the extra cost benefits the curb appeal of your home.
  • They are very slippery to walk on when wet
  • Fire code demands that their be a pathway around them incase of fire.

Leakmaster’s Opinion
