How It Works
From First Layout to Install-Ready In One Platform
Three simple steps. One intuitive design interface. No specialized expertise required.
Start Your Design
Access SunStyle Designer directly inside Scanifly, whether you’re working remotely in PrelimDesign or building from an inch-accurate 3D model in DroneDesign.
Customize with Confidence
Place solar shingles in the signature diamond pattern layout with a single click, easily adjust configurations, and watch production estimates update in real time as you modify active and inactive shingles.
Export and Build
Generate a complete project package — shingle layouts, batten plans, cut sheets, and a full bill of materials — and export field-ready PDFs your install crew can follow segment by segment.
Why It Works
The Design Experience SunStyle Has Always Deserved
Contractor-friendly from start to finish.
Faster from First Layout to Field-Ready Documentation
The SunStyle Designer simplifies the design process and reduces the time it takes to go from the initial layout to install-ready documentation, no specialized expertise required.
Accurate Production Numbers, Every Time
Real-time production calculations account for both active and inactive shingles, updating as you refine the design so your estimates always reflect what's actually on the roof.
Every Report in One Place
Shingle layouts, batten plans, cut sheets, and manufacturer-specific BOMs are consolidated into a single export—everything your team needs from design to install day.
Built on a Platform Contractors Trust
The SunStyle Designer is backed by the same accuracy Scanifly is known for, with drone-verified roof measurements available for contractors who want the highest level of precision.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SunStyle Designer?
A dedicated tool inside Scanifly’s platform that lets contractors design CertainTeed SunStyle solar roof systems from start to finish—configure layouts, generate production estimates, and export complete installation reports.
Why is Scanifly the exclusive design platform for SunStyle?
CertainTeed selected Scanifly based on its reputation for accuracy, contractor-friendly design tools, and the ability to support both remote and drone-based design workflows, ensuring a single, trusted platform for every SunStyle project.
Who is this built for?
Solar contractors and roofers who design and install CertainTeed SunStyle systems. Architects specifying SunStyle for residential projects will also find it useful for generating design documentation and accurate system specs.
What makes the reports field-ready?
Every report is grounded in precise roof measurements. For contractors who have completed a drone scan in DroneDesign, those measurements reflect actual verified roof conditions and produce documentation your install crew can trust on site.
How do production calculations work?
Production estimates update in real time as you adjust the design. The calculator accounts for both active shingles (generating power) and inactive shingles (layout only), so your numbers stay accurate as the design evolves.
Does this work with DroneDesign?
Yes. Contractors working in DroneDesign can use Scanifly’s drone-based 3D models as the canvas for their SunStyle design, providing the most accurate design environment for shingle placements, cut specifications, and production estimates.
What reports can I generate?
A complete project package: shingle layouts by roof segment, batten layouts with placement specs, cut sheets showing custom cuts and locations, and a bill of materials with manufacturer-specific hardware lists—all in a single export.
Is training included?
Yes. Scanifly provides dedicated SunStyle training led by an experienced solar professional. Reach out to Scanifly or CertainTeed directly to get started.
