What are ‘In-Roof’ Solar Panels

In-roof solar panels, also known as roof-integrated solar, are photovoltaic (PV) systems built directly into your roof structure rather than mounted on top of existing tiles.

These panels replace a section of the roof covering, sitting flush with the surface for a sleek, modern appearance.

Unlike traditional on-roof systems, in-roof panels become part of the roof itself, delivering excellent weatherproofing, improved aesthetics, and a more seamless installation process especially ideal for new builds or roof renovations.

Stratford Energy Solutions installs Viridian Solar’s Clearline Fusion panels, known for them outstanding integration, premium performance, and clean architectural finish.

In-roof solar panels are perfect if you’re building a new home, renovating your roof, or simply want a more attractive solar solution.

At Stratford Energy Solutions, we specialise in high-quality in-roof installations using trusted products like Viridian Solar’s Clearline Fusion panels, delivering performance and style in one seamless system.

Wind Resistance You Can Rely On

Integrated roof solar panels are built into your roof, so they naturally face stronger wind pressure than on-roof systems. That’s why choosing panels with strong, tested wind resistance is essential especially if your home is in an exposed area or near roof edges.

Our engineers install Clearline Fusion panels that go above and beyond industry standards. In fact, their wind resistance is more than twice as strong as many competing products. Both G1 and M10 panels were tested to the maximum force available, and they passed with no issues. Even better, they achieve this strength without needing any changes to your existing roof structure.
