Rebates

Installer might move the date. What happens to the rebate in my quote?

Quote has one big 'after rebate' price. Now the installer says the job might slip into a different rebate period. Before I pay a deposit, I want to know who wears the difference. Anyone know what wording I should ask for?

    Ask them to split it out: full price, estimated discount, and the installation period they've assumed. Then ask what you pay if THEY move the date.

    Get that in the quote, not just 'don't worry' over the phone. Check the current federal rules for the installation date too. Paying a deposit doesn't lock in the STC factor.

    Thanks, sent that through. The single after-rebate number looked nice, but it really doesn't tell me much.
