Solar Installers FAQ
How does the receptionist handle site survey?
It asks about utility bill or usage interest, roof type and shade, and battery or EV charging interest, then captures the caller's name and preferred time. If the call mentions solar panel or battery backup, the receptionist keeps the notes specific and follows the business's approved booking or staff-review rule.
What details are collected for battery options?
The receptionist collects practical details such as utility bill or usage interest, roof type and shade, and battery or EV charging interest. It can also include notes about net metering or roof pitch so staff have useful context before confirming the next step.
Can it answer utility bill details?
It answers only from the information the business provides. If the caller asks about EV charger or site survey and the approved answer is missing, the receptionist books the next step or captures a callback request instead of guessing. This keeps the answer clear while still guiding the caller toward a real appointment or callback.
What details does the receptionist collect for solar installers?
It asks for the caller's name, preferred time, and the details needed for a real solar consultation. For this page, that means asking about utility bill or usage interest, roof type and shade, battery or EV charging interest before it books or prepares a staff note.
How does it handle urgent solar installers calls?
The receptionist follows the urgent-call rules you approve. It can flag calls that mention solar panel, battery backup, net metering, capture the address and context, and either book the next available time or prepare the call for staff review based on your settings.
What calendar can it use for bookings?
It can place appointments on the built-in calendar. If connected calendar availability has been set up for the account, it can use those open times; otherwise it collects preferred times so staff can confirm the appointment. This keeps the answer clear while still guiding the caller toward a real appointment or callback.
