Lumos Powermount 2.0 is not only a cleaner & stronger solution than all of the competition it is also the safest in the industry.  With a 25 year equipment warranty on most Solar panels and inverters now a days it is important for the consumer to demand 25 year solutions for wire management and protect the home against improper and inadequate installations.  


Here are some examples of systems with out  The Lumos Powermount 2.0 mounting system.

The Com4t Way

Though fires from solar panels are extrtemely rare, they do happen.  Failure of the solar panel is not what usually causes the fire, it is caused my impropoer installation of the system.   That is why we use the Lumos Powermount 2.0 Rail system for our panels.  These high quality rails are designed with a wire chase to keep your wires neatly organized and off your roof.  Using a wire chase also reduces the need for zip-ties, which can add stress to the jacket of the wire.  Doing so helps reduce the risk of wiring issues greatly and also helps to keep debris from being caught on your roof under the panels.
 
 
 
 
There are many reasons that owning a house makes more sense than renting, so if you had the chance would you rather own your electricity instead of renting it from the utility company?  One of the advantages of having a solar system installed is that you would own part of your electrical production instead of "renting" energy from the power company.  Keeping this in mind, why would you want to rent a solar electric system?  Our competitors offer a rental plan of $45 a month for six years which comes up to $3420 and at the end of 6 years you would have the choice to purchase it or have it removed.  Here at CES we offer a similar system for purchase. Our system costs approximately $3600 after tax incentives and you will own it outright after 5 years. With this system installed the money you save on your electricity bill will cover the cost in 4-5 years.

This graph illustrates the money you will save over the lifetime of the system. The total life-cycle payback is almost 500%.

Not only will your system pay for itself after 4-5 years, it will also be worth approximately $12,000 is you choose to sell it making solar panels a great investment.  In addition to the wonderful financial benefits of this investment, your solar system will help reduce greenhouse gases by 94 tons of CO2.

We only use the highest quality components at CES.  All PV panels we install are Lumos and we use Enhpase micro inverters.   The efficiency of Lumos panels is 14.97% which his higher Sharp's of 14.7%, a BP of 13.8%, or a Trina panel of 14.1%.  Lumos panels are made to such high quality standards that one we have was hit by a fork lift and severely damaged but still outputs its full specified voltage when in sunlight.
