Can VELUX solar collectors be installed on a flat roof?
No. VELUX solar collectors are designed to be installed at a minimum pitch of 15° from horizontal. A pitch below 15° could result in reduced performance and/or damage to the collectors. Please note, however, that if a platform is constructed on a flat roof, that will place the VELUX collector at a pitch greater than or equal to 15°, the installation will meet the design requirements. VELUX is continually improving and expanding our solar product offering and may modify, or add, products to support space heating and commercial applications in the future. Please contact VELUX for updates and specific details on these and other special applications.
