FAQ
What Are The Acceptable Payment Methods?
We accept ACH (virtual checking account) payments from a checking or savings account.
We will typically collect your ACH information as a part of the sign-up process by entering this information into our Installation Agreement.
While Better Earth will always protect your sensitive information, If you are not comfortable entering this information, we can send you an electronic invoice.
Is The Down Payment Refundable?
Yes, the $1,000 down payment is refundable. If you need a refund, please email us at [email protected].
How Does Payment Work If I Am Getting A New Roof With My Solar Project?
If you're paying in cash for both your solar and roof, you will make payments for both.
The payment schedule will be the same as for a solar-only project: $1,000 down, 90% of the remaining amount due at installation, and the final 10% due after inspection approval.
What If I Cannot Find The Invoice In My Email?
If you cannot find the invoice in your email, please contact your Project Manager and they will be able to assist you.
