The TRIK mounting systems can be installed on curved
and flat tile roofs and can only be used for vertical
installations. The advantages are:
• Concealed roof penetrations
• Maintains the integrity of the solar collector and roof
covering
• Fits flush against the roof tiles for a visually appealing
installation
