I received a news release from a large HVACRmanufacturer’s PR people the other day that told of how the company has joined forces with a leasing company to make its equipment available on a rental basis.
And although this may sound like something new, it’s really not. Many energy-management groups and utilities have been working with leasing companies for years and offering equipment upgrades to large commercial organizations on a monthly payment basis with the promise the payments will be offset by energy savings.
