PROJECT · SOLAR PANELS

Solar panels mounted on the ground.

Rows of photovoltaic panels on tilted aluminium frames, set on concrete footings in a lawn.

THE PROJECT

A solar installation in the garden.

Panels can also be installed on the ground, leaving the roof untouched. On this project, they are lined up in rows on tilted aluminium frames, set in a lawn.

The frames rest on concrete footings, so the lawn stays in place around the rows. The frame is aluminium, a lightweight material that doesn’t rust, well suited to an open-air installation.

Ground mounting also keeps the panels easy to reach for cleaning. Before suggesting it, our agent looks with you at where it could go on the plot, the orientation, shade from trees and buildings, and the cable route to the house.
