June 18, 2009

Simplicity of turn-key system lowers cost of installation, delivers a better solar power solution, and wins the "Cool Products" award at PCBC 2009. SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Custom-Bilt Metals, a company with a long history of environmental leadership through product innovation, launches its new FusionSolar(TM) system, a more-affordable, turn-key rooftop solar power system. When builders, contractors and homeowners specify FusionSolar with a standing seam roof, they get a complete system, including all necessary components, detailed schematics and specifications for wiring and electrical components that an electrical subcontractor needs for installation. Since no specialized solar installer expertise is required, sheet metal and roofing professionals are able to install the standing seam roof just as they would a standard metal roof. "By focusing on two core principles, simplicity and a lower cost of installation, we're delivering a better solar power system," said Tony Chiovare, president of Custom-Bilt Metals. "Additionally we are providing builders, contractors and their prospective customers with an ROI report to help them determine their payback period and to understand how much of their total power consumption they stand to offset by generating clean, renewable and dependable solar power." Custom-Bilt Metals has consistently led the market in metal roofing materials by delivering environmentally sustainable metal roofing products through "cool roof" innovation. The new and innovative solar system is an effective roofing solution for virtually any roofing project, new building or replacement roof. The company is also pleased to have the FusionSolar system awarded the PCBC 2009 "Cool Product" designation in the energy saver category.
