Solar Installation Quality – Roof Penetrations

February 20, 2017
On this page
Nobody wants to end up with a leaky roof after a solar installation!

Solarbank always ensure we install the correct flashing for the job in accordance with all standards.

Roof Penetrations

Australian Standards require the use of a Dektite® (or similar) gland for the cable entry through the roof. Solarbank uses full sized genuine Dektite® flashings to ensure a guaranteed watertight cable entry.

The image below is to give you an idea of what roof penetrations look like:
