Ever see these words “Rest assured you’ll be getting the lowest price & the highest quality from “xyz” company”?

Is the lowest price the “Best Deal”? It might not be. You generally get what you pay for, and it’s possible that a low price could be a sign of inexperience. Companies that plan to stay in business must charge enough for their products and services to cover their cost, plus a fair profit margin. Therefore, price should not be the only consideration, and quality should probably rank high on the list.

The warranty is a very important factor for evaluating bids also. In addition to any manufacturers’ warranties on specific components, look for a company willing to cover your entire system for 10 years not just 2 or 5 years. And don’t be confused when companies offer you a 25 year power warranty (this is different). In Arizona this is standard.

So, do your homework and get more than 1 bid for your project, because don’t you want to do this only once?
