Friedman's Home Improvement Selects SolarCraft As Exclusive Contractor to Offer Customers Solar Energy Systems

Posted on: Wednesday, 26 March 2008, 18:00 CDT

Novato-based SolarCraft announced today a partnership with Friedman's Home Improvement to offer residential and small commercial solar energy systems through an in-store program.

The program will incorporate solar kiosks at the Friedman's Santa Rosa, Sonoma & Ukiah locations that feature an Educational Touch Screen Display, informational material and marketing literature. Each location will have an on-site, SolarCraft Solar Energy Consultant at least one weekend each month to do product demonstrations, answer questions and offer free energy bill usage analysis.

The partnership will enable Friedman's customers to purchase a complete turnkey solar energy system, with design and installation by SolarCraft, with the same convenience of purchasing any of Friedman's other thousands of in-store products. Solar is the cleanest, greenest and least expensive long-term source of renewable energy. Solar energy reduces or eliminates your electrical bill while increasing property value and eliminating greenhouse gases.

The program will offer a complete turnkey solar energy system that includes:

Free customer energy bill usage analysis

Free site survey & estimate

Handling of all the paperwork to maximize current rebates and tax incentives

Administration of all building permits

Expert design, engineering and installation

The SolarCraft 10/25 Warranty™ on the solar electric system equipment

100% Financing available OAC

SolarCraft's world class service and support
