Really helpful and accessible staff -- they spent time with us to ensure we understood everything about install and had all of the materials we needed. They showed us around their shop -- what a great technology! We are looking forward to electricity savings and a nice warm shop on our property. Even better to be able to support a Native-owned and operated business that is creating jobs in a rural area!

These guys were great, worked hard, did quality work. In its 2nd winter now, the system reliably blows heat into our shop whenever the sun shines. This last week it was 20 degrees outside and the panels were delivering 125 degree air. We are totally please
Description of Work: Installed a 2-panel system on John's workshop.

If you want to check them out drive by 804 Randolph Road and see for yourself. Thanks to Gwe and his very experienced and dedicated crew you guys did a great job!

I am very pleased with the quality of the product they manufacture. I searched for a passive sun to air system for quite some time prior to finding 8th Fire. They provided everything for the installation especially the eletronics to run the system efficiently. I installed the sytem my self with the help of a friend who is better at electrical then I am. The fact that they are made here in Minnesota was important to me.

Boozhoo Hello from NE Minnesota! Our family is so grateful to 8th Fire Solar for installing a panel on our old house at my mom's residence. The whole experience and process was seamless and only took 1.5 days. Incredible! Their staff are warm and friendly, and to this day continue to call and check in about how the panel is performing. Chi miigwech / Thank you so much (Ojibwe language) to the 8th Fire crew leading the way in accessible, affordable renewable energy options for our state. An easy 5 stars and 2 thumbs up!
