Reviews
What customers say
Customers praise the knowledgeable, friendly team and the prompt answers and guidance they received through the process. One customer calls the installation crew phenomenal, but reports that four shaded panels were not performing to design; CBI agreed to meet in a year to evaluate the system and potentially move them.
