Comparing HVAC estimates

Look at scope and written terms when comparing HVAC project options.

Compare the same scope

Ask providers to describe equipment selection, installation scope, ductwork or electrical work, controls, and maintenance terms in writing. Different materials or exclusions can change the total, so compare estimates covering the same work.

Ask about changes

Discuss how unexpected conditions or requested changes affect the price and schedule. Ask for a written change approval process.

Review before committing

Confirm the provider’s relevant credentials, insurance, payment schedule, and warranty terms. An estimate request through this website is not a contract for work.
