Solar Shingles Are Here

They’re Here! Sunrise Solutions Unveils Long-Awaited Shingles

Briarcliff Manor, N.Y. – shingles are now available for installation by Sunrise Solar
Solutions LLC, the premier residential and commercial installer of solar PV systems in
Westchester County, the Hudson Valley and the entire New York Metro area. Solar shingles
have become an extremely popular and sought-after option for home and business owners
enticed by the aesthetically-appealing, seamless appearance of a solar shingles roof, combined
with a relatively quick and easy installation, and significant federal and state tax credits and
incentives.

“There are many home and business owners who have been waiting for a very long time – and
are still waiting — for solar shingles promised by other companies that are guaranteed to be top-
quality, reliable, effective and save money,” says Sunrise president and CEO Douglas Hertz.
“Their wait is finally over. We can deliver solar shingles to them today that are of the highest
quality and feature proven .”

Hertz added that the “timing (for unveiling solar shingles) couldn’t be better” because the current
federal and state tax credits and incentives remain significant and in full effect until 2019, when
the rates at that time will then start to decrease.

Solar shingles — photovoltaic cells designed to look like and integrate with conventional asphalt
roof shingles — get installed over new or existing roof sheathing and can generate enough

electricity to power a whole house. The solar shingle roof combines the benefits of solar power
with the reliability of traditional roof shingles, and is used in place of roofing materials to
provide the same protection from the elements as you would have from regular asphalt shingles.

Sunrise Solar Solutions has partnered with New York-based SunTegra, formerly known as
Integrated Solar (IST), a solar products company known for developing high-
quality, innovative solar solutions. The company’s administrative offices are in Portchester and
their manufacturing facility is located in Highland, NY.

SunTegra® Solar Shingles attach directly to a roof and integrate with composition shingles and
other low profile roofing materials, offering customers a durable and protective roof material and
a high-performing solar system in one. The lightweight design and integrated wiring reduces
complexity and increases the speed of installation.

According to Stamford, CT homeowner Dennis Farrell, who had the SunTegra Solar Shingles
installed on his home one year ago: “It’s been a full year since installation and I have never had
any problem or issue with the shingles. In fact, my solar shingle roof is extremely reliable and
has significantly reduced my electric bill,”

The solar roof system installed on Farrell’s waterfront home consisted of 55 105W SunTegra
Shingles. The 5.8 kWp SunTegra Shingle solar roof is sized to provide an estimated 6,543 kWh
per year and replaced the need for over 400 ft2 of asphalt shingle roofing. He added that the
installation of the entire shingle roof was a “non-event, quick and clean – and it integrated nicely
into the roof.”
