Hello everyone.
I haven't taken delivery of my new 6 metre Malibu Ducato campervan yet. I've been looking into solar panels. I'm trying to get as much as possible up there. My first theory was two panels running from nearside to offside. Each side of the washroom skylight, which is in the middle of the van. Now I'm thinking, maybe it is better to just have one bigger panel, running from front to rear, just behind the awning.
I went up to the NEC show this week and was speaking to a very knowledgeable person from a well known company about solar panels. He said, because the roof is ridged, this can cause problems fitting panels. Something I'd not considered yet I believe is true.
My questions are,
What have 6m Ducato owners done to fit panels on the ridged roof?.
What panel/panels have you fitted and where on the roof?.
If you could supply any photographs, that would be fantastic. Thank you to everyone who reads and posts.
Best regards,
Clewie.
