The Apollo II Solar Roofing System from CertainTeed seamlessly integrates with roofing shingles and comes in pre-engineered kits for easy installation. Each slim 12-pound module features 14 high-efficiency monocrystalline silicon solar cells with a power rating of 60 watts per module. The low-profile design requires no structural reinforcement, and an open space under the modules allows for easy wiring. Water channels and raised fastener locations improve waterproofing. Apollo II systems are Class A fire-rated and meet UL 790, UL 1703, and IEC 61215 requirements. They can handle wind resistance up to 110 mph and loads up to 250 pounds per square foot.
