    Mounting solar panels to rooftop

    What is the best way to mount the panels to a composition shingle roof?
    Common sense tells me they can't be fastened directly to the roof, so is
    there a minimum amount of clearance that needs to be allowed, or any other considerations I need to address?

    there are mounting legs and rails, that bolt thru the shingles to the roof studs, and you should have at least 4" for air circulation.
