Fronius Symo Shade Cover Keeps Rooftop Inverters Cool
The Fronius Symo Shade Cover is a lightweight aluminum shield that sits over a Fronius Symo inverter mounted out on the roof. It is part of the Fronius Rooftop Solution, which puts the inverter right next to the array.
Fronius designed it to keep the inverter's temperature low and its performance high, and it can be retrofitted to existing installs.
Why You'll Love The Fronius Symo Shade Cover
Cooler inverter, more energy. Fronius lists lower operating temperature and higher conversion efficiency as the main benefit, and says the cover pays for itself through extra production.
Weather protection. Shields the inverter from harsh rooftop conditions.
Easy zero tilt mounting. Lets you mount the Symo flat on the roof without special racking.
Simple to fit. Installs the same way as the inverter mounting bracket and weighs just 8 lb.
Your life, with the Fronius Symo Shade Cover
Your inverter sits out on a hot commercial roof all summer, yet it keeps working at full output instead of throttling back in the heat. The install stayed simple, the roof stayed clean, and the cover quietly earns its keep year after year.
