HVAC companies: more customers, new revenue, less unnecessary cost.
HVAC companies run on phones, schedules and seasons. These are the systems we would typically build and operate for an HVAC business, using the tools it already has.
These are examples, not a package. We start with the opportunity worth the most to your business, record a baseline, and build what it needs using the tools you already have.
What we usually see
The same gaps show up in most HVAC businesses. Calls that come in during a job or after hours go unanswered. Replacement estimates go out and never get a second touch. The maintenance plan exists, but it depends on someone keeping a list. Past customers go quiet until their system fails, and then they call whoever shows up first on Google.
Tools you probably already use
- Field service software such as ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro or Jobber
- QuickBooks or your accounting tool
- Your website and Google Business Profile
- Your phone system and text messaging
- Your financing partners
Where we would start
- 01
Every call answered, including the missed ones
Missed calls get a text back within a minute with a way to book. Web forms and Google messages get a reply and a time. Voicemails are transcribed and queued for the office.
What changesA busy afternoon or a no-heat call at night stops turning into a lost job.
- 02
Estimates that follow up on themselves
Every open replacement estimate gets timed check-ins, with your financing options attached where you offer them.
What changesQuotes stop dying in the inbox, and replacements close on the monthly payment instead of the sticker price.
- 03
The maintenance plan, running itself
Members get visits scheduled, reminders sent and renewals handled before they lapse. Every completed job gets the plan offered.
What changesRecurring revenue that does not depend on someone keeping a list.
- 04
The right offer in the right season
Customers hear about the AC tune-up in spring, the furnace check in fall, and a replacement conversation when their system reaches that age.
What changesSlow weeks fill from customers who already trust you.
- 05
Reviews after every job
The same review invitation goes to every customer after every job, with a direct line to you if something went wrong.
What changesYour reputation grows every week, and you hear about a bad job before you read about it.
- 06
A Monday morning number
Jobs done, revenue, open estimates and who is due for a callback, in one message before the first job.
What changesYou know where the business stands without opening anything.
Scout, Forge and Sift for HVAC companies
Scout
Find the demand you are not capturing, from missed inquiries and dormant leads to nearby customers who have never heard of you, then build the path that turns it into paying customers.
Explore Scout ExpandForge
Turn what the business already knows and does into revenue that repeats: plans, memberships, add-ons or new services your customers would pay for.
Explore Forge SaveSift
Find the software, vendors and manual work you pay for every month without needing all of it, and replace them without losing what they do.
Explore SiftWhat stays with you
Anything that commits you to a price, a refund or a schedule change comes to you first. Connecting your tools does not authorize us to send messages or change records; every automatic action is one you agreed to, and you decide what needs review first.
Questions
- Do I have to switch field service software?
- No. We work with the software you already use, whether that is ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, Jobber or something else, and connect it to the rest of your tools. If a tool cannot connect, we tell you before any work begins.
- Is this an answering service?
- No. Answering missed calls is one system. We build and operate the connected set, from calls and estimates to maintenance plans, reviews and reporting, and we keep improving it.
- Will AI talk to my customers?
- Only in the ways you approve. AI helps inside the systems, for example drafting a first reply or summarizing a voicemail. You decide what goes out automatically and what needs your review.
