This is consistent with our goal of providing a standardized yet flexible product that is very easy for contractors to order and install."Chief Technology Officer Duane Davis adds, "The design allows the ground mount assembly to simply bolt on to our Solar in a Box frame in a manner similar to our roof mount kits. By making use of the strength the frame, we were able to minimize additional materials and provide a very cost effective solution."
