First whoever thought of the name for this company should be fired. Aren't Air and Wind the same thing. Second their main business appears to be solar. So the name is nonsensical. Rant Over<br />Now to the company and it a people. Really nice, very smart. Grant came out to my home. I had called people off of my utilities list Of approved providers. He was very nice good looking, clean cut young man. Yes it helps when the sales guys are attractive and present themselves well. At first I thought this young man is too young to be doing this job. I think he said he was 21. But he answered all my questions never gave me sales pitch and low/ no pressure. I really hate pushy sales people. I used to manage a call center for American Express so I know all the techniques. The biggest thing. That Stood out for me though that set Air Wind & Solar apart was thier in house financing program. As said I worked for Amex for most of my adult life and I couldn't Believe this little company was funding and financing these with thier own money and no bank. I would really like to know where they get thier money. Grant said they just bootstrapped it. Sure they did! Grant said said they financed 2.7 million dollars last year. How a little Texas company bootstraps 3 million is beyond me. But I digress. Point is I didn't have the cash to buy the system and I hate leases of any kind. Being able finance at 0 percent (i put $3600 down) and I will get $4500 back from the IRS. I did check with my CPA first. And she confirmed the $4500. I couldn't believe it. And my loan is paid off in 4 years. I don think these kids recognize what they have. Sooner or later someone is going to put the Kibosh on this deal. I'm just glad. I got mine. Install was timely. Actually a little anticlimactic. They showed up early in the morning 7am or so. By the time i got ready to leave the solar panel things were already on my roof. The wire and boxes took most of the ready of the day. But they still completed my project before 7pm. The foreman or boss: Tony or Anthony took me through how it worked. He was very pleasant but clearly in a hurry.<br />I got a phone call about 2 weeks later saying the power company was coming coming by to so thier inspection. Not sure why I need a inspection from the power company. But the system passed.<br />My bills where averaging 180 dollars per month my last bill was $26.78. I am thrilled.<br />Just change the name people!
