Has anyone used Renusol CS+ ballast racking? I found them online and there is a picture showing the trays being filled with roof rocks like I am considering. I am having trouble getting a hold of them. I see that there is a post in the archives from 2011 for an older version Renusol CS60. Anyone know of a contact or distributor for them?
