CloseThe solar arrays will be exposed to harsh weather conditions throughout the year. Hot-dip galvanizing was chosen for this project due to its longevity and durability. There are many exposed steel components on the solar array supports and HDG provides protection for the edges and corners as well as the inside of the tubular sections. The dishes are guaranteed to last at least 25 years and by utilizing galvanizing for corrosion protection, the dish supports will be maintenance free for decades exceeding the projects life expectancy.
