A general rule of thumb is to install the Solar Collectors at your Latitude plus 15 degrees. However, if your roof pitch falls within 5 – 10 degrees of this measurement, you can still simply flush-mount the solar collector on the roof. Additionally, there are special installation angles designed to balance the performance of the collector between summer and winter for best performance.
