As the world increasingly shifts towards renewable energy, solar power remains the only choice for sustainable domestic energy production. However, one common challenge in solar panel installations is finding a quick, reliable and non-invasive installation method on flat surfaces.
The range of RENEW Plastic Solar Ballast Mounting Tubs offer a seamless solution to this problem, delivering a versatile and easy-to-use option for your solar panel needs.
Why Choose RENEW Plastic Solar Ballast Mounting Tubs?
When installing solar panels, you want a system that is both efficient and protective of your property. Traditional mounting systems often involve drilling into surfaces, which can lead to potential damage. The RENEW Plastic Solar Ballast Mounting Tubs eliminate this concern with a non-invasive design that makes installation both easy and flexible.
Key Features and Benefits
1. Easy and Flexible Position Planning
RENEW Plastic Solar Ballast Mounting Tubs allow you to effortlessly customise the placement of your solar panels. Whether you’re working with a large commercial roof or a small residential flat, these tubs give you the freedom to position your panels for optimal sunlight exposure.
2. Fast Installation
Time is critical in solar installations, and RENEW tubs are designed with speed in mind. The simple design ensures a quick and straightforward setup, making it a perfect choice for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts.
3. Suitable for Any Flat Surface
Whether on a flat roof or the ground, the RENEW tubs are versatile enough to be used on various surfaces without any additional modifications.
4. Non-Invasive Installation
By using ballast weight to secure the solar panels, these tubs eliminate the need for drilling or penetrating surfaces, preserving the integrity of your roof or ground. As often using mechanical fixings will lead to your flat roof warranty being null and void and fixing the panels to the flat roof acts as a sail creating unwanted stress and load on the roof materials and construction.
5. Unlimited Expansion
The modular design of RENEW tubs makes it easy to scale your solar installation as your energy needs grow. Adding more panels really easy ensuring your system can expand without major changes.
Introducing the Fast Tub: A Revolution in Solar Panel Installation
In addition to the standard RENEW Plastic Solar Ballast Mounting Tubs, the latest innovation in the range is the Fast Tub. Designed to take efficiency and speed to the next level, the Fast Tub is the go-to choice for those who need rapid installation without compromising on quality.
1. Exceptional Speed and Efficiency
The Fast Tub is engineered for those who value time. Featuring a unique pattern-pending rail and clamp system, this model ensures that alignment is straightforward, allowing installation to proceed at nearly three times the speed of previous models. This translates to reduced labour costs, higher productivity, and increased profitability for installers.
2. No Extra Fixing and Fitting Required
The Fast Tub integrates seamlessly with the existing RENEW rail system, eliminating the need for additional parts or fittings. This compatibility not only speeds up the installation process but also simplifies inventory management and reduces overall costs.
3. Versatile Design for Any Flat Surface
Like the original RENEW tubs, Fast Tubs are suitable for any flat surface, including roofs with a pitch of up to 5 degrees. Whether you’re installing in landscape or portrait orientation, the Fast Tub’s 13-degree angle of installation ensures optimal sun exposure and energy generation.
How Do the RENEW and Fast Tubs Work?

Fast Tubs:
The Fast Tub offers a ballasted solution for both landscape and portrait orientations on flat roofs or ground surfaces. With a 13-degree installation angle and compatibility with surfaces up to a 5-degree pitch, the Fast Tub is a versatile option for a range of environments.
