NOTICE
Avoid flush installation. This is an option (see also
Ch. 7.4.1, 'Spacing between the module frames'),
but, aleo solar recommends mounting at intervals.
This applies particularly to bolt or lay-in mounting
systems.
Uniform configuration
In a sequence of modules, ensure uniform configuration within
a row. Doing so for module fields with numerous rows makes
it easier to achieve an aesthetic appearance.
NOTICE
Measure the intervals between the modules when
laying a row. If, for example, you start mounting a
module row from the left, measure the gap to the
upper-left corners of the neighbouring modules. Use
this same interval for all the modules in the row.
The following illustration shows a uniform configuration
allowing for tolerances in the width of the module frame (the
diagram of the differences is exaggerated):

NOTICE
Avoid measuring the module intervals only with a
gauge (e.g. a spacer).
As module frames may vary slightly in terms of
width, this may lead to the rows below ending
up with a slightly different overall width. This,
together with the row above, can create an
inaesthetic effect as the edges of the modules
on the sides are no longer properly aligned.
In the case of numerous rows on top of one
another, this effect may become more pro-
nounced ('V pattern').
Also, only use a well-orientated first row as a
reference point for the orientation of the rows
below it. Always measure the intervals between
modules for the following rows.

Defined Installation Options

Installation location
On-roof installation
Attach aleo modules with clamps or bolts to at least four
support points.
NOTICE
If there is a pressure load > 2,400 Pa, only clamp
the modules symmetrically. Symmetrically means:
all clamps are an equal distance from the nearest
module corner.
Bolt fastening is also symmetrical fastening.
For symmetrical fastening, a dual-layer mounting
system may be necessary, depending on the
installation conditions (e.g. the distances from
existing tile rows); see also Ch. 5.9.6, 'Identical
mounting rail intervals in rows/columns'.
