Visit S-5! at Booth #V9681 (Level 2) to explore its versatile solar attachment technologies, now being applied to solar carport structures, including purlin-constructed canopies. S-5! will also highlight its PVKIT—the industry’s original and most widely used rail-less solar mounting system—now Florida Product Approved (FPA) for High-Velocity Hurricane Zones (HVHZ). This certification represents a significant step forward in simplifying code compliance and permitting for solar professionals.

A Major Milestone in Hurricane-Ready Solar Mounting

Florida’s product approval process is known for its stringent standards, designed to protect structures in regions prone to high winds and extreme weather conditions. S-5!’s PVKIT has now been rigorously tested and certified to meet these requirements, making it easier for architects, builders, and inspectors to specify with confidence.

S-5! is the first metal roof attachment manufacturer to earn FPA certification for HVHZ—a designation backed by more than 5,000 load tests across all major roof profiles, material types, and gauge thickness.

Carport Application Built on Proven Performance

S-5! attachments are engineered to support solar installations on carports and overhead canopies, providing:

  • Fast, efficient installation with fewer components
  • Watertight, secure connections
  • Exceptional wind uplift and downslope resistance
  • Full compliance with UL 2703, UL 3741, FPA and FM Approvals
  • Compatible with most Cee and Zee purlin-framed structures

These solutions are ideal for contractors and developers seeking robust solar integration on canopy-style structures without compromising structural or waterproofing performance.
