ContractorAI is an AI estimating, invoicing and CRM app for contractors, available for iPhone and iPad. ContractorAI's HVAC estimate calculator prices an HVAC install from the house and the system. Add rooms with their size, windows and sun exposure, choose insulation quality and climate, pick a split system or mini-split and the number of zones, add duct runs, line sets and condensate drains, then set your labor rate and markup. You get an itemized HVAC estimate you can send from your phone.

HVAC ESTIMATING PROBLEMS
Room sizes, windows, exposure and insulation all affect the system you quote. Collecting them on paper is slow.
Supply and return runs, elbows and takeoffs add material and labor that often get missed.
Condensers, air handlers, mini-split heads, line sets and drains each need their own line on the quote.
When a system fails, homeowners want a price the same day. A clear, itemized quote is easier to approve.
HVAC CALCULATOR FEATURES
Built for HVAC contractors. Every number can be edited before you send the estimate.
Rooms with length, width, height, windows and exposure, plus insulation quality and climate.
