Franchise FAQ

I’m interested in starting my own business. Can I buy your product and resell?

It’s not just about products it’s about services, including the home energy audit, proper installation and customer service. Eagle Shield has exclusive distribution rights to most of our products and we do not resell.
“Experts estimate that contractors install some 90 percent of HVAC equipment and insulation sub-optimally, reducing efficiency by 20 to 30 percent.”
-Unlocking Energy Efficiency in the U. S. Economy, McKinsey & Company, July 2009
