- Doing business with your neighbor…there are probably a number of qualified installers with a single location within 10 miles of your home.
- Meeting with the person responsible for getting your system installed, not someone with a title like consultant, project developer or any other name for salesperson.
- Not falling for free anything…it’s not free! If you’re offered a free Ipad, trip, or cash rebate, you can bet it’s included in your system price.
- Getting local references and call them.
- Bigger doesn’t always mean better.
