3Do you have a solar solution?
The application of solar options will become an integrated part of the South African energy revolution. At Harvey Roofing Products, we have designed the HSB (Harvey Solar Bracket) , suitable for the application of solar panels & Geysers. The HSB is manufactured from High Tensile Steel, no need to “pierce” the Harvey Tile and risk a leaking roof. The HSB is easily fitted onto the timber or steel batten. The Uniform Wind uplift load is 2 Kn/m2, which makes the HSB the only tested and tried Steel Tile Solar Solution that would withstand the elements.
