can this be mounted on the roof?

You probably could, but you may not want to. I have mounted units on the roof before and found them to be a lot harder to maintain ( because I had to climb onto the roof whenever they needed maintenance ) and because it will put a lot more head pressure on the pump to push the weater up to the roof.

Probably not- you'd have to be very careful because it's made of plastic and is very heavy when filled with water. Plus your pump would have to work extra hard to pump water up to it on your roof.

That's a difficult question. In an urban area-probably. In a rural area-probably not.I know this isn't what you wanted to hear but in a structure that moves around there are too many variables. My suggestion- Spring for the roof mount.

I don't know about installing on the roof. I would however encourage you not to buy this product. I had nothing but problems with mine and it broke in two weeks. Although they reimburse me for the price of the awning, I still was out hundreds of dollars for professional installation.there's a reason why this product is priced so cheaply.

Yes to the outdoors, the mount swings from horizontal as pictured to vertical so it could be screwed to a post, side of a house, etc. or just mount it to a board and set it on something tall.very versitile.

No they cant - you have to have some sort of mounting rack on the roof. Malone makes the HR20 MPG453 that will work on a bare roof, or you can look an roof kits from other mfgrs like Thule or Yakima.

No, do not mount the controller on the roof. You will need extension cables from the 10' pigtails on the panels to connect to the controller. A 50' pair of cables is available from Amazon. Instapark® CBL50-MF 12-Gauge 50-foot MC4 Solar Panel Extension Cable, UL Listed, 2-Pack

In manual it states you can do it, but at your own risk. To avoid leaks and/or mechanical damage I would not recommend it. It sticks to roof just fine.

No, it's structure wouldn't allow that. I think you'd have to build an angled box that provided a level place on the ceiling to mount it.

I don't see why it wouldn't work on a metal roof...Just make sure you never cross the wire over itself. I would run it all the way down the downspout...Check the installation instructions that come with it.

No. This can only mount directly on the roof. It has a thermostat and runs automatically, and silently, whent he attic temperature gets to 80 degrees F. It turns off when the attic temperature is 70 degrees.

It is possible, although I wouldn't recommend it. There's a hole in the back, and if you put a pin in the roof, you could definetily fit it and keep it there. This hole was made for you to use it on a wall. If you need to use it on the roof, I'd recommend you using one of those 3M tapes that will stick it there.

I do not know, contact the manufacturer, they may have a special kit to install on the metal roof

Never tried it on roofs---if the roof is "moldy" it should work. Be careful and "good luck".

It runs on 12 volt power so if you had a 12 volt power supply in your house some how and ran wire long enough off your roof it could be possible.

nothing is the directions says you cant, and pretty sure you can since these units are very popular in other countries and usually mounted on the roof.

I have not done it, but you are supposed to be able to mount the compressor unit on the roof my understanding is that yes you can.

You should be able to. The cable is rated for that. I have the cable running on the roof in Miami Florida.
