Quotation preparation: The important role of fully completed checklists

The preparation of a quotation for a PV substructure requires precise project data. Our checklists bundle this information in a structured manner. Once they have been completed in full, we can reliably calculate the statics and ballasting and select the ideal substructure. Queries are minimized, you receive a comprehensible quotation promptly and the prerequisites for safe and efficient installation are created.

The most important information briefly explained:

SpecificationWhat we need them forNotes on recording
AddressDetermination of the building category and regional wind and snow loadsPlease provide the full address of the property (street, zip code, town). In the case of new buildings, please include the parcel/address of the building owner and site plan.
Building heightBasis for statics and ballasting
Attic height and widthRelevant for statics, ballasting and module design
Roof pitchProduct selection (which system is permissible) and ballastingIn degrees or percent; please indicate whether sloping on one or two sides, as well as direction of slope.
Roof covering (e.g. bitumen, trapezoidal)Selecting the right substructure and fasteningFor trapezoidal sheet metal: Bead spacing, sheet thickness and trapezoidal height
Please let us know your desired UK (e.g. ZELOS or CHRONOS).
Module type (data sheet)Weight and size specifications of the modules are important for an accurate design/staticsIn the best case, send a data sheet for the desired module

If this information is complete, we can process your inquiry quickly and you will receive a reliable quote promptly. At the same time, your installers benefit: precise project data is the basis for a clear ballasting and installation plan that enables safe and efficient installation on the roof.

Optionally, we would be pleased if you could provide us with further data, if available. This will allow us to plan in even greater detail and prepare a more accurate quotation:

  • Current photos
  • Roof structure
  • Occupancy or string plan
  • Load-bearing capacity of the roof
  • Lightning protection/fire protection specifications
