Esdec FlatFix Fusion High Base: Creating the Optimal Tilt for Flat Roof Solar

Achieve the ideal angle for your flat roof solar array using the Esdec FlatFix Fusion High Base. Typically used in partnership with the FlatFix Fusion Low Base, this component creates the raised rear support point, establishing the system's standard tilt angle. Optimising the tilt of your solar panels maximises their exposure to sunlight, boosting energy production and enhancing the financial benefits of your system, providing a better hedge against rising energy tariffs.

Enabling Efficient Panel Orientation

The High Base is integral to the standard 'dual' configuration of the FlatFix Fusion system, where panels are mounted at a fixed tilt:

• Creates Tilt: Forms the higher, rear mounting point when connected to the Low Base via the Base Profile.
• Optimised Angle: The height difference between the High and Low bases typically sets the system's standard tilt (often around 13 degrees, confirm via Esdec specs) for a balance of yield and stability.
• Rear Support: Provides the secure rear anchor point for the solar panel and associated clamps. Also available as a portrait version for specific layouts.

Modular Integration and Stability

As part of the modular FlatFix Fusion system, the High Base connects intuitively with other components. It provides attachment points for Rear Wind Deflectors and potentially Stabilizers, contributing to the overall aerodynamic performance and structural rigidity calculated by the Enstall design tool. It sits securely on the roof (often with a protective mat on sensitive membranes).

Durable and Weather-Resistant

Constructed from high-quality, robust materials selected by Esdec for their longevity and resistance to UV radiation and weather extremes, the High Base is built to last. Its durability ensures reliable performance throughout the lifespan of the solar installation, backed by Esdec's standard system warranty (typically 20 years). It supports the ballast containers used to secure the non-penetrating system.
