Assessing The Lifecycle Of An Industrial Or Commercial Metal Roof Before PV Panel Installation -

IT IS IMPORTANT to consider the lifecycle of your metal roof before installing solar PV panels.

Due to the significant costs of a solar PV system, the condition of the roof is critical, so assessing it prior to installation is necessary. The expected lifecycle of commercial solar PV systems is around 20 to 25 years, therefore it is crucial that your roof is able to match this.

Failure to bring the roof back to standard can lead to corrosion of the roof sheets beneath the PV panels. Uninstalling and reinstalling PV panels in order to refurbish the roof or undertake a full roof replacement would be a costly and time-consuming process.
