How high should the solar photovoltaic panel rack be

How high should the solar photovoltaic panel rack be

Solar panels should be mounted at a height of 3.75″ to 5.25″ from the roof’s surface to ensure optimal performance. This measurement takes into account the seam of the SSMR, typically 1.5″ to 3″ in height, the mounting hardware, adding approximately ¾” and the module frame, contributing another 1.5″.
