Solar Installers of Florida is proud to showcase one of our most technically impressive residential projects to date: a 46 KW (114-panel) , multi-roof solar installation completed in the beautiful community of Longwood, Florida.

This project reflects the perfect fusion of engineering expertise, aesthetic craftsmanship, and cutting-edge APsystems microinverter technology, delivering massive energy savings and long-term resilience for the homeowner.

With this system producing enough power to save approximately $1,000 per month, this home is now one of the most energy-efficient residences in the area.

A Complex Multi-Roof Design—Executed Flawlessly

This home features six separate roof surfaces, each with different angles, orientations, and shade conditions. Designing a cohesive system across so many roof planes requires detailed planning, careful load distribution, and intelligent production modeling.

Our engineering team created a unified high-output system that ties all six arrays into one balanced, efficient solar plant—without compromising the home’s architectural beauty.

To enhance aesthetics and long-term durability, all conduit, wiring, and piping were routed through the attic, keeping the exterior completely clean and free of exposed conduit.

This added significant complexity, but the results speak for themselves:
✔ Clean roof lines
✔ Hidden electrical pathways
✔ Professional finish that impressed even the county inspector

“The workmanship and attention to detail are outstanding.”
— County Inspector, Longwood, FL

How APsystems Microinverters Made This Project Successful

This installation demanded a technology platform capable of maximizing production in challenging conditions—and APsystems microinverters delivered exactly that.

Below is a breakdown of how APsystems enhanced performance, simplified installation, and ensured long-term reliability.

1️⃣ Maximizing Production on Shaded or Complex Roofs

In a traditional string inverter system, shade on just a few panels can drastically reduce output across the entire string.
This home experiences partial shading at different times of day due to surrounding structures and roof geometry.

APsystems microinverters solved this challenge by enabling panel-level optimization, allowing each panel to operate independently.

Benefits:

Energy production stays high even when some panels are shaded
Morning/evening shade no longer affects midday performance
Every roof surface produces at its maximum potential

This dramatically boosted overall output across all six roofs.

2️⃣ Simplifying Installation Across Six Roof Surfaces

The multi-roof structure required flexible system architecture. Traditional string configurations would have created design constraints, voltage challenges, and complex wiring runs.

APsystems’ microinverter platform:
✔ Simplified array connections
✔ Eliminated string voltage limitations
✔ Allowed freedom to size each roof section independently
✔ Streamlined the electrical layout

This flexibility made the entire installation more efficient and electrically feasible.

3️⃣ Smarter, More Reliable Communication with Zigbee

APsystems relies on Zigbee communication, allowing multiple roof sections to connect seamlessly to a single centralized gateway.

For this installation, that meant:

Smooth integration across six roof zones
Fast commissioning
More stable long-range communication
Simplified monitoring for the homeowner

All arrays report to a unified dashboard, giving the homeowner complete visibility of system performance.

4️⃣ Enhanced Safety & Faster Inspections

APsystems microinverters offer built-in rapid shutdown, improving safety for:

Homeowners
First responders
Maintenance teams

This feature also facilitated a smooth inspection process—contributing to the praised professional outcome.

The Final Result: A High-Performance, Aesthetically Clean Solar System

This 114-panel installation in Longwood, FL is a prime example of what happens when:
✔ Expert installation
✔ Smart design
✔ High-performance APsystems microinverters
✔ Architectural care

…all come together.

The result is a powerful, attractive, technologically advanced system that stands as a benchmark for residential solar excellence in Florida.
