Here are the steps for retrofits
1)
Contact us to get started. Use our online inquiry form, call 1-800-222-4335 or send us an
e-mail.
2)
Scoping. We sign a letter of intent
with you. Then, working with you, we identify potential energy efficiency opportunities. We go over the preliminary numbers
with you and discuss your implementation plans and schedule.
3)
Energy Analysis. We provide an energy analysis report for the opportunities with the highest likelihood of implementation. The report contains
specific recommendations and refined estimates of costs and savings. It also includes our incentive offer and any commissioning
requirements. We pay for the study.
4)
Incentive agreement. We sign an incentive agreement
with you
before
you sign purchase orders or make other financial commitments to proceed with implementation. The incentive is estimated based
on the energy analysis.
5)
Implementation. You complete contracting and installation, then notify us when each is done. You complete any required commissioning and
provide commissioning submittals and documentation of your final costs for each energy efficiency measure, with labor and
material itemized.
6)
Post-installation inspection and incentive payment. We complete a post-installation inspection report that documents the final project costs and energy savings. We calculate
the incentive amount based on the inspection results and provide you with the incentive check.

We may verify pre-installation conditions, and energy efficiency measures must meet minimum equipment efficiency levels and
equipment eligibility requirements in our
FinAnswer Express program.
And what does not qualify?

You're in charge
Remember, once you make a commitment, you remain in control. You choose the technologies and the manufacturers you want to
use. You choose the contractors with whom you'll be working. From analysis through installation, we will work within your
planning and construction schedules. Think of us as an extension of your own team — there to offer information, confirmation
and options for your decision making.
