INTRODUCTION

REV DATE: 07/16/2020VERSION: 2.0

The ClickFit mounting system consists of patented adjustable tile hooks and L feet, rails,

and the installation materials required for the mounting of photovoltaic modules on

composition shingle or tile roofs. For simplicity, tile hooks and L feet will be referred to as

“attachments”.

3.1 Attaching to the Roof

The attachments are fastened to the rafters. Attachments are height-adjustable to level

the system on uneven roof surfaces.

3.2 Attaching the Rail

The rail assembles to the attachments with a click-connector, or Clicker. The rail simply

clicks into place without the use of any tools.

3.3 Attaching the modules

The modules are attached to the rails by means of mid clamps and end clamps.

Installer must review the module manufacturer’s installation manual to conrm

compliance to the warranty terms and conditions.

Checklist of tools and accessories

Note: *Proper PPE shall be worn at all times*

Tape measure

Roof crayon or chalk (a chalk line can be helpful as well)

Cordless drill with torque adjustment and the following bits:

• 1/2” Hex socket

• 1/4” diameter drill bit. (Drilling length no less than lag bolt depth)

Brush for clearing debris from roof surface. Hint: Leaf blowers

work well to remove any leftover moisture prior to installation.

Torque wrench capable of 0-150 in-lbs

REQUIRED TOOLS

REV DATE: 07/16/2020VERSION: 2.0

• Refer to span tables, local jurisdiction, or engineer of record specications when determining setbacks

from roof edges, attachment spans, etc.

• Mark the perimeter and corners of the array on the roof surface.

*Add 3/4” to account for the gap between modules in each direction*

• Draw or snap chalk lines where the rails will be installed,(refer to module manufacturer specs to

determine allowable mounting locations).

• Locate rafters within the area of the array. It may be necessary to shift the array East or West on the roof

in order to fall within the rail cantilever specs (l/3) of span).

• Stagger rafters every row if required by the local jurisdiction, engineer of record, or company policy.

ARRAY LAYOUT

REV DATE: 07/16/2020VERSION: 2.0

Pre-installing rail splices

1. Determine the number of rails required per row of modules.

2. Insert a rail splice into one rail. *Do not push it past the center bump.*

3. Slide the next rail onto the rail splice until the two rail ends meet.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the desired length is achieved. *This is usually easiest to do from the

ground.*

INSTALLING CLICKFIT

REV DATE: 07/16/2020VERSION: 2.0

Installation of flashing and L feet

• ClickFit for comp shingle roofs uses EcoFasten Solar’s GFl watertight ashing system

• Other roof types may use dierent EcoFasten Solar attachments, see www.EcoFastenSolar.com for more

information.

Installation Steps:

1. Locate rafter lines from section 5.2.

2. Drill l/4” pilot holes at all attachment points and back ll using roof-compatible sealant.

3. Separate shingles where ashing is to be installed. Insert the ashing so the top portion is under the

next row of shingles North. Ensure the ashing is pushed to the third-course of shingle to prevent water

inltration through the vertical joints between shingles.

4. Align GFl ashing hole with pilot hole. Insert the lag bolt with pre-installed bonded washer through the L

foot and EPDM grommet. Tighten the lag bolt until a ring of EPDM is visible around the circumference of

the bonded washer.

Tighten the lag until fully seated. The EPDM Ring visual indicator is the most eective way to ensure a watertight seal.

*Note the orientation of the L foot and Clicker. The two

Clicker “arms” should be facing downslope*
