Contractor Business Leads – Locate a Contractor Program

The EAP provides customers with qualified contractors to conduct work in their homes or place of business.

Customer Financing

Through our partnership with the National Energy Improvement Fund, EAP members have access to trusted customer financing for both residential and commercial projects.
