The 12” tall Drift Solar snow retention system is designed specifically for snow retention below solar panel installations.

Aluminum 4-pipe fence-style brackets are for use on new and existing roofs where snow is being retained on solar panels. They must be bolted directly to roof support structure flush at the eave with the tubing side facing down-slope (reversed installation compared to other Drift Series snow fence installations). 

  • Must be bolted directly to roof support structure (rafters/trusses)
  • When fastening into wood, requires five (5) #15 x 2.5” CTX lag screws (sold separately) per bracket
  • Customer must source their own 1/2" x 3.5" lag bolts (5 per bracket) when fastening into metal

Ice Screen (sold separately) must be installed with the Drift Solar snow fence system to impede the movement of snow between the tubing.

All fence-style system components sold individually, assembled to meet the specifications of your roof installation's snow retention needs.  Please contact our expert design team for a free layout and quote!
