I still want to pay as little as possible to get as much as possible.
Famous last words...
I do a load calc on every house whether the HO wants one or not. It is insurance for me and my company that the job is being done correctly.
If the homeowner wants a copy of the calculation, there is an up front charge.
If they buy a system from me I give it to them for free.
We do this because too many homeowners feel no remorse to take your information which has taken you hours to put together and "shop it around" to low ball installers...
How tall are you Private???!!!!
