The biggest problem I see with two man crews, is travel time - in a lot of cases getting to the install and back takes as much, or more time than the install itself. Safety seems more to be more of an argument for two man crews than time - our guys often will team up on the more complicated installs for that reason, but a typical install is just one man, and we normally schedule three installs, but if travel time allows, he can easily do four in a day... and a few service calls besides.
