Enphase Solar Install on
Concrete Tile Roof

Concrete tile roofs need a different mounting approach than composition shingle — tile hooks and flashing have to be set without cracking tiles or compromising the roof's water seal. Our crew specializes in tile roof installs and used tile-specific mounts to keep this system watertight for the long term.

We chose Enphase microinverters for this project so that each of the 17 panels performs and reports independently — if one panel is ever shaded or underperforming, it doesn't drag down the rest of the array the way a single string inverter setup would.

The homeowner added a Level 2 EV charger in the same project, wired to run primarily off daytime solar production so their vehicle charges on power the roof is already generating.

Equipment used

• 17 solar panels with Enphase microinverters
• Tile-specific roof mounts and flashing for a concrete tile roof
• Level 2 EV charger, wired to a dedicated circuit
• Full permitting and PG&E interconnection handled in-house
