The work
The days HVAC contractors run, on either system.
01
Seasonal
Maintenance plans generate the tune-up visits, renew on stored cards, and carry a checklist for the system type.
02
Service
No cool, no heat. Urgency first, the nearest truck next, and the customer texted an ETA.
03
Install
Changeouts and new construction tracked across their days: crews, equipment, and permits on the same record as the service board.

The old way
What the whiteboard costs HVAC contractors.
Two seasons overload one board
Summer and winter peaks bury dispatch while install crews compete for the same trucks.
Renewals slip
Maintenance agreements lapse quietly when renewal is a spreadsheet column somebody forgets.
The paperwork exposure
Refrigerant logs, warranty registrations, and rebates left incomplete are an audit risk and lost money.
