What goes on an HVAC estimate

The example above is made up; yours starts with nothing filled in.

Start yours
  1. Three options on one page

    Repair, replace and high-efficiency side by side, so the customer picks one.

  2. The unit by name

    Its efficiency and size on its own line, so the invoice and warranty match.

  3. What's not in the price

    Permits, electrical work, duct changes and anything found once the old unit is out, said before it's signed.

  4. Sold at the door

    A unit sold at the customer's home can come with extra rules: check the rule where you work.

Questions

How far over the estimate can the bill go?

Many places set a limit. Type yours as a percent and each change is checked against it. Check the rule where you work.

Markup or margin?

A 50% markup on 100 makes 150: a 33% margin, not 50%.

How big a deposit?

Many ask 10% or less, or enough for parts they order. Check the rule where you work.

What does it print?

The estimate, a job sheet with a shopping list, and a change form.

Where is my estimate kept?

Nowhere, unless you sign in and save it. A PDF is made on our server and not kept.

Is this legal advice?
