Rooftop support systems are an integral part of conduit, piping, and
mechanical installations that often go underappreciated. These unsung
heroes of the rooftop world provide a stable and secure foundation for
equipment, ensuring that everything from HVAC units to solar panels
stays in place, regardless of weather conditions or external forces.

I’ve owned three homes in my life. The youngest was 41 years old when I

Rooftop solar panels, once a bit of an oddity, are becoming a common

Information Administration’s residential energy consumption survey found
that almost 4% of U.S. single-family homes were using panels to
generate electricity and the market has continued to grow since then,
with capacity climbing by 34% in 2021 and an additional 40% in 2022.

into the blue end of the visual spectrum.
