The PS Dark 400 goes on during framing, before the interior work starts. Your roofing and solar are the same product, installed by one crew, on one schedule slot. No second mobilization. No penetrations through a brand new deck.
Talk to Us About Your ProjectThe PS Dark 400 isn't an add-on. It's the roof, and it eliminates several line items that complicate new construction schedules.
No separate roofing sub and solar sub. The PS Dark 400 installer handles both. One crew on the roof, one schedule slot, one inspection for the roof and the electrical system.
In California and high fire risk jurisdictions, AHJs require fire-rated roof assemblies. The PS Dark 400 is Class A rated, which satisfies that requirement without adding a separate fire board layer. In those markets, it's a substitution, not an added cost.
Traditional solar racks require drilling through the roofing material on day one. The PS Dark 400 is the roofing material. No penetrations, no compromised waterproofing, no warranty exposure from a separate solar installer's work.
Chimney crickets are one of the most common sources of roofing callbacks. Poor flashing workmanship around penetrations follows jobs for years. BIPV with integrated flashing eliminates that exposure entirely. There's no rack to flash around, no after-the-fact penetration work.
The PS Dark 400 qualifies for the 30% federal ITC for business entities. If your buyer owns through an LLC, operates a home business, or it's a commercial property, they get 30% back on the full installed cost—a significant close tool for your sales team.
Custom builders: the PS Dark 400 is a premium roofline with zero visible hardware. Production builders: work with us on roof layout to maximize solar density per unit.
The PS Dark 400 installs at dry-in, the same phase as any other roofing product. Everything downstream stays on schedule.
To maximize solar output on a production build, we work with your architect and site planner early in the design phase to orient roof planes and minimize shading. The earlier we're in the conversation, the better the system performs per unit.
Custom or production, we want to understand your build before we tell you what makes sense. Fill this out and we'll be in touch within 2 business days.
