Steps Taken with Your Installer Partner

Typically, after you contact an installer, the next steps to expect are...

1. Installer will contact you back, and get a few additional pieces of information.
2. They will schedule a no-cost, no-obligation visit, and walk you through one or more quotes concerning the heat pump and smart insulation options for your home.
3. You review the physical options, your ability to use the tax credits, and the different financing choices (upfront purchase, low-interest loan, or incentives and/or tax credits)
4. If an option makes sense, you decide to move forward, and the Installer completes the paperwork to lock in your incentives and contract.
5. You are added to the Installer's construction schedule, and they complete all of the project engineering, permitting, and financing paperwork.
6. You review the HeatSmart Enrollee checklist to ensure you receive the information entitled to you by your Installer.
7. Your project is installed, and you start meeting your needs with a smarter more efficient home and often start saving money immediately.
8. Don't forget to encourage others to join!
