As per whatsapp from the solar company engineering team, my roof structure cannot support the weight of the solar panels "Kayu ni boleh pecah kalau kita drill, bila da masuk L + railing + panel , possibility utk kayu tu mengepak dan pecah tinggi tu". This means im stuck with a rm700+ tnb bill every month from now on  |

i'm not sure of the system, probably most are ok.
however please note that i heard a lot of feedback from building contractors, these solar so called "installers" are mostly inept in roofing works. and they go a shitty job most of the times due to taking easy way out. if they are drilling to your metal roof, better buy better screws as they give u those that cause rusting due to galvanic corrosion and some lagi funny they placed on roof slabs using paver blocks as weight to press down the panel, and not suprising it blew away due to strong wind |

Don't do a good job yet charge high price as middleman. yeah, they "assume" their subcon installer are good, and client dont go up to see.and after the client asked if happen again how? they can ask the client buy insurance for it. |
