Can you mount solar above vents?

That's exactly what I did in 2014. 3x 250W panels with 3x bypass diodes each, wired serial, mounted 6" above the roof and MPPT controller with battery voltage sense. No shadows from the A/Cs and better performance in sun, shade and leafy shade than parallel panels.
