3 in 1 Roof solar tile passes UL safety testing
Aug 9, 2019 05:45 PM ET
Solar tile manufacturer 3 in 1 Roof has passed UL 1703 safety testing for its solar roofing tiles. The company claims its solar roof system is eight-times lighter than traditional tile roofing materials and can withstand 200+ mph winds.
50-W solar modules are recessed into each tile, and the modules can apparently be removed and replaced without disturbing the tiles. The tiles are made of insulating foam and have a Class-A fire rating.
3 in 1 Roof has four different styles of tiles in 12 colors. The tiles themselves have a lifetime warranty, while the solar cells come with a 30-year warranty. SunSpark was previously confirmed as 3 in 1 Roof’s solar module provider.
The company says it is sold out for 2019 but is currently accepting 2020 orders.
