You are spot on. Take a look at YouTube videos for “solar panels roof leaks” It’s stunning. One repairman shows that every hole a Utah roof leaked. He says it is very common. Each panel needs multiple holes.Roofers do not want to work on nor warranty roofing with those solar paneled roofs.it’s a boondoggle. There are many articles about solar companies that have quickly gone out of business leaving warranty holders out-of-luck. I’d never buy a house with solar panels. I would not buy a house where I have to look at them either since they are not only ugly, they are a ticking time bomb of expensive maintenance issues. Who wants to have THAT next door?
