10 kW Residential Rooftop in Lithuania
A single-family house with a steep tiled roof, dormer windows and a chimney. The array covers most of the south-facing roof plane, working around the roof windows rather than ignoring them.
- Client: A Lithuanian homeowner
- Capacity: 10 kW
- Country: Lithuania
What Made This Project Difficult
- Dormer windows and a chimney break the roof plane into sections
- Snow load on a domestic tiled roof through the Baltic winter
- Chimney shading across part of the array for part of the day
- A family living in the house while the crew works on the roof
Client Background
A single-family house with a steep tiled roof, dormer windows and a chimney. The array covers most of the south-facing roof plane, working around the roof windows rather than ignoring them.
Project Challenge
A domestic tiled roof with dormers and a chimney is the hardest kind of surface to lay out cleanly, and a Baltic climate adds winter snow load to a roof that was never designed for an array.
Our Solution
TTM 530-550 W modules at 1134 mm wide, which let full rows be landed between and beside the dormers instead of stranding part-rows. Aluminium alloy racking flush-mounted on tile hooks keeps the added dead load low on an existing domestic roof.
Manufacturing Process
Modules produced and flash-tested on the automated line, then binned so the visible roof array has consistent appearance and output.
Supply Chain Coordination
A small order shipped by carton - 31 modules per carton - with the racking bundled for the single roof plane.
Quality Control
Flash test and power binning, glass and frame inspection, junction box seal checked before packing.
Final Result
A 10 kW array filling the south-facing roof plane, laid out in unbroken rows around the dormer windows.
Customer Benefit
The narrower module platform meant the usable roof area was actually used, and flush aluminium racking kept the install to a short time on a lived-in house.
