| 2 years ago | mod | Removed Comment > Calling it data gathering is probably a bit of a stretch - It was mainly scribbled notes from calling a ‘certified vendor’ and asking them if they have any of the models on the list.
Name them.
> Invariably the price for the approved model, and installed by the approved installer, was at least 2x the price of getting a similar model installed by a local company.
Again, name the company.
> We have booked a local guy at $2500 for an installed system that meets our needs. Where even after the rebate from QC the cheapest ‘program applicable’ solution we found would have been $5600 + travel for the installer.
Why is it so hard to name the companies?
I am going to be blunt with you. This response is one giant red flag and unless you can provide some details here this is misinformation and you are actively attacking Government programs.
When this is how you started:
>The scummy part of the same program here in QC is that they have a specific list of models that qualify, and a list of installers. Any deviation means no rebate
>
>**I have been gathering data from both lists for almost a year and have yet to find a combo of model/installer** that comes out to any less than double or triple what a properly sized system would cost to have installed outside of that program.
I expected far more than what I got. by Ember James ( Arkouda@lemmy.ca ) reason: rule 2 |
| 2 years ago | mod | Removed Comment > Why do you think anybody owes you anything in a lemmy comment? This is seriously weird.
>
> No red flags in demanding to know the companies I have called at all. Nope. You don’t come off as insane here at all.
The company you called. As you stated it was one. The reason is not crazy, who wouldn't want to save over $3,000 on a heat pump installation? Sounds too good to be true.
>The closest I’m going to get to telling you where I live is to say that **I have contacted a dozen companies in the outaouais region since May 2024**. And the list of applicable models is available here --> https://www.hydroquebec.com/residential/energy-wise/financial-assistance/logisvert/archive-lists-heat-pumps.htm
>**Calling it data gathering is probably a bit of a stretch - It was mainly scribbled notes from calling *a* ‘certified vendor’ and asking them if they have any of the models on the list**.
No one can be this silly and mean it...
>Fill your boots, weirdo.
>
>And I already explained ‘gathering data’ was me calling an installer, asking about the model and writing down their estimate on a notepad. Then a day or a week later trying another. What more do you think someone would do in this case? Should I stand up a key:value store with an auto-scaling back-end and some APIs?
How about you tell everyone who the company is so we can all save $3000 by switching to them. Seems pretty selfish if you ask me. Not very Canadian of you. by Ember James ( Arkouda@lemmy.ca ) reason: rule 2 |
