Chubb also required that all equipment will be UL rated and that installers are UL certified. Do others have met this requirement or tried to negotiate with Chubb? I was told by my contractor that they may agree to waive teh installer UL certification which can save a bundle. Any suggestion will be greatly apprecaited
