Built for body and paint work

Body equipment and install labor are quoted as separate lines, the way a contractor actually bills. Prep, primer, base, recovery, evacuation and commissioning are broken out, and refrigeranterials get their own line.

Estimates are informational: they help you price and discuss a repair. They are not an insurance appraisal and not a binding quote.

Frequently asked questions

How does HVAC Service Estimator work?

Take a photo of the equipment, add a short description (typed or dictated) and optionally scan the data plate. The app identifies the fault, decides repair or replace unit by unit, prices the parts and labor, and produces an itemized estimate you can send as a link or a PDF.

Does it handle equipment and refrigerant properly?

Yes — equipment is a material line with the capacity in the description, installation is labor, and refrigerant is priced by the pound with the type named. Permits and commissioning are their own lines, not folded into the install.

Why scan the data plate?

The data plate pins the make, model, serial and tonnage, so parts and labor times match the actual unit rather than an average system. Scan the plate on the condenser or air handler cabinet.

Are prices local?

Parts prices and shop rates are for your city, and you can set your own hourly rates per skill so every estimate uses them.

Can I send estimates and invoices to customers?

Yes. Send a branded estimate as a share link or PDF, turn an approved estimate into an invoice in one tap, and track what has been paid.

Is this an insurance appraisal?

No. Estimates are informational — they help you price and discuss a repair. They are not an insurance appraisal and not a binding quote.

Does it work on iPad and Android?

Yes — it runs on iPhone and iPad, and there is an Android version on Google Play.
