Lamar Lighting a local manufacturer of energy efficient lighting wanted to install a photovoltaic system at their headquarters in Farmingdale. An engineering study of the building determined the weight of a traditional crystalline system could not be supported. Statewide was able to step in and provide Lamar with a lightweight “Thin Film” Solar solution. The area underneath the system was re-roofed with a tapered insulation system to provide effective water drainage for the panels. Uni-Solar Modules were then adhered directly to Johns Manville EPDM. Lamar was able to go green, re-roof a section of their building, and increase their existing roof drainage. The job was completed and connected to LIPA without any costly structural improvements to the building.
