Energy rebate for new central AC install

I just installed a new central AC system at a rental unit.

The install cost me over $3500, and Florida Power and Light offers a pitiful $91 rebate.

I heard in some other states the power companies offer a significant rebates to a new AC or furnace, or even energy saving appliances.

Anyway in order to get this $91 rebate my AC installer asked me to provide to him the FPL account number of my tenant living there.

When I asked the tenant about the account number they questioned whether that rebate should be going to them or me.

I paid for the central AC system.

Yet FPL is offering a rebate and requested an account number for the rebate, giving them an impression this is the account which should be reaping the benefits.

What say you?  To me I don't care it's $91 it's not even worth the time for a conversation but I suppose this could come up again with other units and appliances.
