Hi everyone,
I looking at various posts on this forum, I came across a few notes concerning how the system is installed (and how this effects installation costs). One comment mentioned considering whether the wiring runs across the roof, or down into the attic. Another talked about how different installers address "soffits."
My questions are first: What is best/preferred? Should the connections be run through an attic? (fire hazard? difficult to inspect? one more hole in the roof? Or, Should they be up on the roof and run over the side? continuous exposure to the elements?
My second question: If going slog the roof and ver the side, should it go through the soffit? Or over/around the gutter?
I am trying to figure out whether these are primarily aesthetic considerations.... or of there are other issues.
Thanks.
