Contractors and equipment distributors can now offer a special financing program to homeowners who are installing certain energy efficient measures.

Qualified energy efficient improvements include:

  • Furnaces and Central Air Conditioning
  • Heat Pumps
  • Water Heaters
  • Insulation
  • Replacement Windows and Doors
  • Siding and Roofing
  • ENERGY STAR® qualified appliances
  • Lighting and Fans
  • and many others
In addition, EFS can finance any associated costs connected with the above measures. This includes duct work, electrical upgrades, energy ratings, and service warranties.

NOTE: Be sure to review your sponsor's loan program to get additional information on the efficiency requirements for each measure installed (ie SEER, AFUE, etc.).


Benefits

There are many benefits to participating contractors, including:

  • Ability to close more sales.
  • Payment made directly to the contractor upon completion of work. Payment can be made by direct transfer of funds to contractor's bank account, or by check.
  • Potential for additional business. Once on the participating contractors list, the contractors name will be distributed to potential customers who live in the contractor's service territory.
  • There are no sign up fees to the contractor or customer.
