1) As we all know you need at least liability insurance on your business. 2) Since most manufacturers hold themselves "not responsible" for ANYTHING (incidental damage) other than replacement or repair during the warranty period a customer does have the legal right to TRY to contract you to do so. I don't have any customers that have pulled that stunt but it is not unheard of. I would try to reason with them. If that does not work, I personally would drop them. Sounds kinda fishy after 8 yrs of dealing with them. Just my opinion!!!

Do they mean liability insurance for the product you are installing or a general liability policy for when you are doing work on their property? If it is for the product you are installing I would push back and try to find out what they are talking about. It may be someone in their purchasing department has gone off the rocker and misinterpreted a directive.

I have a customer I have been dealing with for about 8 years that has decided they won't do business with anyone that does not have liability insurance on the products they vend. It seems rather stupid to me, but I guess that's what happens when lawyers get involved. Input appreciated.
