Recently, we asked if you might have any installation images using Alpine SnowGuards that you’d be willing to share with us. “Ask and ye shall receive” could not be a truer statement. WOW, did you deliver snow guard project photos we love! We couldn’t be happier with the response we received, the amount of photos, and the quality of those images! Thank you to everyone who took the time to send them our way – we’re excited to continue sharing them.
Snow Guard Project Photos We Love
NRG Solar
Project: NRG Home Solar, Long Island, NY. The product is Solar SnowMax-R2.
Note: since the time of this writing, Alpine SnowGuards has innovated a new three-part solar snow management system.
Solar installers have been successfully using our solar snow management solutions when installing modules in snow country, and with good reason. Picture a solar panel (glass, frictionless) loaded with snow. Now picture any melting snow acting as a lubricant between the snow mass and the panel surface. The result is an extremely slick surface that’s also the perfect scenario for the snow mass to come barreling off your roof in the form of a snow avalanche, putting people, animals, expensive landscaping, cars, and anything else you may keep directly around the perimeter of your home or business, in harm’s way.
Nicely done, NRG Home Solar. Nicely done.
Vermont Residence
Project: Vermont residential project using ASG4025 pipe-style snow guard
A homeowner named Paul from the Green Mountain state of Vermont installed these on his metal standing seam roof. He did such a great job he wanted to share this photo to show how easy it was to install. Paul, you did a beautiful job! Thank you.
The ASG4025 is forged from a solid block of recycled aluminum, and measures a substantial 5 ¼” tall and 4” long. Because the system utilizes oval-point set screws to attach to the panel ribs, no penetrations are made to the roofing material, so there’s no need to worry about voiding roofing manufacturer’s warranties. You can also choose to have the system powder coated to match your roofing material, which, as you can see below, looks really great on a roof like the one on this bank (powder coating shown here on our ASG4000 pipe-style snow guard).
Hayden Building Maintenance Corp
Project: Hayden Building Maintenance Corp using PP225 Height Adjustable Three-Pipe System
I won’t lie. When Hayden Building Maintenance Corp. in West Nyack, NY sent us these images, I was pretty excited. The PP225 height-adjustable three-pipe system not only looks amazing on this slate roof, the project also incorporated our ice flags, which we don’t see images of as much as we’d like. Ice Flags hang from the pipe between the brackets to help keep ice and snow from sliding underneath, and are an add-on accessory that makes sense.
The height adjustability allows for customization for varying roof pitches, and the rugged design will maintain a substantial snow load.
Great work, Hayden, as always.
Thanks again to everyone who sent photos.
