What Clients Say

"Before AIQ's scoring, we were chasing every inbound call about 'noisy AC units' or minor duct issues that led to zero bookings. Now, it flags the real emergencies—like compressor failures in 95-degree heat—allowing our techs to hit high-intent leads first. Last summer, we booked 22 extra full system installs in July alone, increasing our revenue by 28% during peak season. It's like having a dispatch brain that knows our local market inside out."

Mike Reynolds

Operations Manager, CoolBreeze HVAC Services, serving the Dallas-Fort Worth area

"Our legacy CRM treated all leads the same, resulting in wasted trips for simple air filter changes or basic thermostat calibrations. After implementing AIQ's custom model tailored to our service logs, we cut unqualified dispatches by 40% in just two months, freeing up 15 hours per tech weekly. The ROI was immediate—more slots for profitable furnace installations during the heating season, boosting our winter margins by 22%."

Sarah Patel

Owner, Precision Climate Control, specializing in residential HVAC in the Midwest

"In our humid Southeast market, leads spike with every heatwave, but scoring them manually amid call center chaos was impossible. AIQ built a model that integrates our inbound call transcripts, weather APIs, and predicts who's ready for a full ductless system upgrade. We've seen a 30% uptick in repeat business from properly nurtured prospects over the past year, with 12% coming from emergency referrals."

Common Questions

How does custom lead scoring differ from standard CRM tools for HVAC businesses?

Standard CRM tools offer basic filters, like sorting by location or inquiry type, but they fall short in predicting intent for HVAC specifics—think distinguishing a quick tune-up from a full ductwork overhaul. Our custom solution uses AI trained on your data to score leads with 85% accuracy, factoring in nuances like call urgency during heatwaves. We build it to integrate deeply with your scheduling software, automating prioritization so your team focuses on jobs that pay off, not endless callbacks. This tailored approach has helped contractors reduce follow-up time by 40%, directly boosting billable hours.

What data sources does the lead scoring system use for HVAC contractors?

We pull from your core systems: call recordings for sentiment analysis (e.g., frustration over high energy bills), website interactions like quote requests for furnace efficiency, and historical job data to spot patterns in repeat clients. External factors like local weather forecasts enhance scoring for seasonal services. Everything is custom-mapped to your workflow—no generic inputs. This creates a holistic view, ensuring leads for emergency repairs score higher than routine maintenance, helping you allocate techs efficiently during peak demands.

How long does it take to implement custom lead scoring for my HVAC company?

Implementation typically spans 6-8 weeks, starting with a two-week discovery phase to understand your lead flow—from inbound calls about noisy units to online bookings. We then build and test the model over four weeks, integrating it with your CRM and dispatch tools. The final two weeks focus on training your team and live monitoring. Unlike plug-and-play options that disrupt operations, our process minimizes downtime, with many contractors seeing initial scores within the first month. Post-launch, we refine based on your data for ongoing accuracy.

Can the system handle variable lead volumes, like during summer AC surges?

Absolutely. Our scalable AI architecture is designed for HVAC volatility—handling 10x spikes in leads without lag. It dynamically adjusts scoring priorities, elevating emergency queries (e.g., 'no cool air') over general inquiries. Built on robust frameworks, it processes thousands of data points per hour, ensuring your dispatch stays smooth. Contractors using our system report 50% better lead handling during peaks, preventing overload and maintaining service quality even in 100-degree heat.

What kind of results can I expect from custom lead scoring in HVAC?

Expect a 30-50% increase in conversion rates, based on our benchmarks with similar firms. For instance, high-scored leads often close 3x faster, turning a vague 'check my heater' call into a booked replacement job within days. You'll see reduced no-shows (down 40%) and higher technician efficiency, freeing up slots for premium services like smart HVAC integrations. ROI kicks in quickly—many clients recoup costs in 3-6 months through more billable work and fewer wasted trips.

Is the lead scoring system secure for handling customer data in home services?

Security is paramount in HVAC, where leads involve sensitive home details. We use enterprise-grade encryption and comply with standards like GDPR and CCPA, ensuring all data— from addresses to service histories—is protected. Our custom builds avoid third-party vulnerabilities, with role-based access so only dispatch sees scores. Regular audits and on-premise options keep everything under your control, giving peace of mind as you score leads for everything from routine vent cleanings to major system installs.
