Solarstone® Solar Full Roof™
Technical Specifications & Installation Manual | Version 1.0
Description
The Solarstone® Solar Full Roof™ is an award-winning building-integrated photovoltaic (BPIV)
product developed in-house by Solarstone® in Estonia. The roof generates electricity for
self-consumption, and any surplus energy can be sold back to the grid, allowing the Solar Full
Roof™ to pay for itself. The building-integrated solar modules used in the product are designed for
resource eciency, an attractive appearance, and water-tightness. The product has been tested
for wind uplift, water tightness, and fire safety.
Solarstone® 's patented Click-on® technology is designed to be used in combination with 370W+
solar modules, achieving high productivity and best performance. The Solar Full Roof™ has been
developed to withstand a wide range of environmental conditions and can be installed on almost
any type of sloped roof.
The Solarstone® Solar Full Roof™ system can be installed in either landscape or portrait mode.
Roof perimeter or obstacles will be covered with passive modules that provide both safety and
equal aesthetic appeal. The passive modules are equally easy to assemble and can be cut on-site.
Why people choose Solar Full Roof™:
Solar power for self-consumption.
2in1 system – technology and functionality.
Streamlined aesthetics for building skins.
Making the world a greener place.

Steps 1-6 | Roof preparation
Step 1 | Structural Analysis Before Installation
Ensure that the method used for installing roofing materials and the supporting substructure is
strong and able to properly support the chosen product and meet its weight requirements.
Additionally, the supporting system should be installed in accordance with local, national, and
international standards.
Factors to consider include the weight of the materials, the slope of the roof, the perpendicularity
of the structure, the condition of the existing rafters, the suitability of the batten material, and
applicable wind and snow load parameters.
Step 2 | Underlay
Install a watertight breathable underlay which evacuates all moisture out of the building
structure. Only high quality underlay should be used (in accordance with harmonized European
Standard BS EN 13859-1:2014) with a high resistance and stiness against wind uploads. Other
configurations are applicable such as SBS/PVC underlay, which must be applied if the roof angle
is below 18°.
Disclaimer: No roof is 100% waterproof. Proper underlayment helps condensed water or minor
leaks (occurring with heavy rainfall) escape directly into the gutter or naturally ventilated sots.

Step 3 | Counter and Ventilation Battens
Battens must be fixed in place with two screws or nails. The length of the screw or nails must be
sucient to penetrate ventilation battens and counter-battens and enter rafters ⁄ of its length.
Battens must comply with the Eurocode specifications according to the wind and snow zones in
your region. For improved ventilation Solarstone® recommends using following batten
specifications.

Counter battens
45...53 x 45...53mm
45...53 x 95...103mm

Step 4 | Diagonals and Slope
While measuring roofing diagonals and right angle, make sure that the diagonals match on ends
and the roof is at the right angle
If diagonal measurements of the roof area do not match, contact your roofing partner to fix or
prepare to use custom size dummy modules or transitional flashings
Roof pitch must be greater or equal to 18°. In case of lower slopes full SBS underlay is
required.

Step 5 | Eaves and Gutters
To continue with installation of battens, the next step would be to choose which eaves type is
applicable. If you have selected one of the eave types provided below, the accessories oered by
Solarstone® will also be compatible with your roof.

Step 6 | Batten Step
Batten step depends whether modules will be installed in landscape or in portrait mode. Bear in
mind that the first batten step gauge (Y) diers from the next steps (Z and X). Value C is the total
height of the roof.
