What Jayco means is, the Roof on a Hybrid is designed with certain Stress supports. They install supports for the roof AC weight which is about 100 pounds. The roof will indeed hold 250 lbs of a person. I weigh 250 and have been on countless Jayco Hybrids doing roof and AC work. What Jayco is stating is standard CYA language. Even tho your unit is way past warranty, Jayco will not state what to do and will just discourage you from doing it. There is no problem installing Solar Panels on your Jayco. Doug
That was my first thought also.
There was so much snow on that roof two years ago that a couple solar panels would add literally nothing compared to the snow load.
What I am not 100% sure about is the screws holding the panels down at highway speeds, but most likely that would be ok as well.
