GENERAL QUESTIONS

Because they find a sheltered, warm and safe space, suitable for resting and nesting. The area beneath the panels protects them from bad weather and predators, creating a favourable environment especially in residential and urban settings.

Because it helps prevent nesting, the build-up of droppings and debris, cable damage, increased maintenance and potential reductions in system efficiency. It contributes to reducing the risks associated with flammable material accumulated beneath the modules.

No. It is a mechanical system designed to prevent birds from gaining access without harming them. It uses no electricity, ultrasound or aggressive devices: it simply creates a physical barrier that prevents nesting beneath the panels.

Because a mechanical barrier designed for photovoltaic systems protects the module perimeter in a stable way, without resorting to drilling or adhesives and without obstructing the natural ventilation of the panels. It is also neater and more consistent with the system structure compared to improvised or non-specific solutions.

The choice depends primarily on the condition of the system and the installation context.

The BASIC Series is recommended for new or not yet infested systems, when preventive action is desired. It uses a pre-painted galvanised steel comb and is designed to protect the photovoltaic perimeter before birds begin to nest.

The TOP Series is designed for systems already infested, where a more robust barrier is needed to prevent birds from returning after cleaning and remediation. It uses a high-strength stainless steel comb.

The INDUSTRY Series is dedicated to large-scale industrial and commercial systems, particularly on extensive roofs, corrugated roofing or contexts with more than 100 metres of perimeter to protect or at least 50 kWp. It is available with galvanised or stainless steel combs, with features suited to large-scale professional installations.

Yes, the system is designed to create a continuous barrier along the module perimeter while maintaining natural ventilation. The spacing between the teeth is engineered to prevent birds from intruding beneath the panels.

No. A recurring principle across all Series is the preservation of natural module airflow, so as not to compromise the correct operation of the system.

Yes. The constructive logic of the system is to protect the area beneath the panels without fully sealing the perimeter, so as to allow airflow and maintain normal rainwater drainage.

Yes. Product materials indicate it is reusable after maintenance work, a feature that applies in particular to the BASIC, TOP and INDUSTRY Series.

BASIC SERIES

The BASIC Series is recommended when the system is new or not yet infested and preventive action is desired, protecting the module perimeter from the moment of installation.

Yes. It is explicitly presented as a solution to prevent nesting in new photovoltaic systems and for installations carried out at the same time as the system is fitted.

It is primarily designed for prevention. Where infestation is already present, the most suitable Series is generally the TOP, designed for professional intervention on already infested systems.

It offers preventive protection, quick installation, natural module airflow, preservation of panel integrity and ease of fitting. It is designed to correctly seal the perimeter without drilling or adhesives.

Yes. Product materials indicate that it guarantees natural module airflow and preserves panel warranties.

The BASIC clamp is designed for panel frames from 25 to 35 mm. The installation instructions also indicate the correct positioning of the bracket according to panel thickness.

The comb is available in Dark Brown and Silver finishes, while the clamp is available in Silver and Black.

The BASIC Series carries a 15-year warranty on materials.

TOP SERIES

The TOP Series is recommended for already infested systems or situations where a more robust, stable and long-lasting barrier is required.

Yes. It is presented as the ideal protection for photovoltaic panels infested by birds and is designed to definitively prevent access and nesting beneath the modules.

Because it uses a high-strength stainless steel comb and clamp and is designed for professional installations even in critical situations, while maintaining ventilation, performance and system warranty.

High-strength stainless steel ensures greater durability, greater long-term reliability and better performance in more critical contexts or those already compromised by the presence of birds.

It is the comb pre-cut system every 5 cm that allows manual sectioning without tools, making it easier to adapt the product during installation.

It is the facilitated pre-fixing system for the comb that allows it to be positioned quickly without the immediate use of clamps, simplifying installation especially on the side without a supporting structure.

Yes, it can be reused after maintenance work.

The TOP Series carries a 30-year warranty on materials.

INDUSTRY SERIES

The INDUSTRY Series is recommended for large-scale industrial and commercial systems, especially on extensive roofs where robustness, reliability and speed of installation are required.

Yes, it is recommended for industrial and commercial roofs with more than 100 metres of perimeter or systems of at least 50 kWp.

Yes. It is designed for installations on corrugated sheet metal roofs and large-scale industrial and commercial roofing.

It offers robustness, natural module airflow, speed of installation, reusability after maintenance and a configuration suited to large surfaces and industrial contexts.

The comb is available in galvanised steel or stainless steel and features a specific anti-scratch finish.

The INDUSTRY Series provides under-module protection from 50 to 100 mm, configurable according to the system’s characteristics.

Yes. It is a reusable barrier after maintenance work.

The INDUSTRY Series carries a 15-year warranty on materials.

PURCHASE & QUOTES

The system can be purchased by both private customers and professional installers.

The cost depends primarily on the length of the perimeter to be protected and the Series chosen. To help with the assessment, a calculator is available to estimate the number of kits required based on the system’s dimensions.

For the BASIC Series and TOP Series, the material is sold in kits of 10 combs and 10 clamps.
For the INDUSTRY Series, the packaging consists of 1 comb + 1 clamp, with a minimum order of 100 metres.

Tax deductibility may apply if the expenditure is incurred at the same time as the installation of the photovoltaic system, or if installed concurrently with the system’s revamping.

INSTALLATION

A standard 4 mm Allen key is required. The use of gloves during installation is also recommended.
The installation video is available on the Video Tutorial page.

No. The system is fixed to the module frame using clamps and requires no drilling or silicone adhesives.

Yes, the system is designed to make installation straightforward. It is however essential to work safely, especially on rooftops, using appropriate personal protective equipment.

Yes. Before fitting the barrier it is necessary to clean beneath the panels, removing any nests, eggs or debris present under the modules. Sanitisation of the roof is recommended where possible, but is not essential. This step is only required for already infested systems. If the system is not yet infested, the Isidoro® System protection barrier can be installed immediately.

Yes, but compatibility varies according to the Series and frame thickness. The BASIC Series is compatible with frames from 25 to 35 mm, the TOP Series with frames from 25 to 47 mm, the INDUSTRY Series with frames from 25 to 35 mm.

Yes. Compatibility varies according to the Series.

BASIC and TOP are suited to standard and residential applications.

INDUSTRY is designed for large-scale industrial and commercial systems, and is particularly suited to extensive roofs, including corrugated roofing.

Yes. Installation video tutorials are available for the various Series. You can view them on the Video Tutorial page.

Yes. The system can be removed and reinstalled for maintenance.
