ECOVIVA & TLS BALEAR
A complete system, from roof to energy.
The roof remains the weatherproof envelope. Above it, the mounting system supports the modules and transfers loads to the structure. Electrical conversion, protection and optional storage complete the installation.
Example insulated roof build-ups. Existing roofs may have a different construction; solar installation does not automatically include new insulation or a roof renovation.
01 · ROOF INTEGRATION
Solar on a traditional tiled roof
A layered roof, a precise connection and a discreet array. Solar is installed above the tiles while maintaining the roof’s drainage and ventilation.
Roof build-up & solar integration
- 1Structural timber & roof deck
- 2Vapour control & insulation
- 3Underlay & ventilated battens
- 4Terracotta roof tiles
- 5Structural roof hooks & rails
- 6Photovoltaic modules
02 · ROOF INTEGRATION
Solar above an insulated flat roof
Low-profile supports sit above the waterproofing. Protection pads, roof capacity, drainage and wind design determine the mounting and ballast.

MALLORCA
Three settings. One carefully designed system.
A discreet installation should suit the architecture and the available space.
02
Flat roofs
ProMount SOLARSPEED layouts, including east-west options. Roof capacity, wind loads, ballast, drainage and membrane protection determine the design.
03
Ground-mounted systems
A property-specific option where roof installation is unsuitable. Structure, foundations, cable route and planning requirements are assessed separately.
Illustrative installation concepts; not completed EcoViva projects.
From sunlight to useful electricity
1. Modules & DC circuit
Bauer 465 Wp glass-glass modules. Layout, string voltage and current must suit the selected inverter. Connector compatibility and cable protection are checked.
2. Inverter
A suitable Solis inverter converts DC generation to AC. The exact model, phase configuration, power and communication accessories are confirmed for the installation.
3. Protection, metering & distribution
DC and AC protection, earthing, cable sizes and metering follow the installation design. Connection and certification are performed by the appointed authorised specialist.
4. Household consumption
Electricity is used by the property while it is produced. Useful system size depends on the consumption profile and occupancy.
5. Grid interface
Import, export and surplus compensation depend on the selected self-consumption arrangement, registration and electricity contract.
6. Optional AC-coupled storage
Marstek VENUS E is an AC-coupled storage option. Version, controls and metering are confirmed; whole-house backup is not assumed.
What is checked before installation?
Roof & structure
Tile condition, supporting structure, fixing points, roof load, membrane compatibility, drainage and maintenance access.
Wind & exposure
Layout, roof edge zones, attachment or ballast calculations and corrosion resistance for the site.
Electrical design
Supply phases, inverter compatibility, string design, cable routes, protective devices, earthing and measurement.
Documentation & handover
Equipment references, design scope, checks, installation certificate, registration, monitoring access and warranty documents as agreed.
