According to the company, systems ordered online are produced and shipped out within two business days.
"The recent updates to PV Powerhouse allow installers to design commercial-scale flush mount systems, automatically generate stamped letters, and see two-day turnaround times," stated Angela Kliever, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Schletter.
