AI Receptionist
AI receptionist for commercial HVAC contractors
A failed chiller in a server room is a different call from a warm office, and the SLA says so.
The problem
What a missed call costs you
Commercial HVAC is governed by contracts with response times attached, so a missed call is not just lost work, it is a breached SLA. Callers are facilities managers who expect a person, know their asset numbers, and will escalate to your competitor if you cannot be reached. Engineers are on plant rooms and roofs where phones do not get answered.
The pattern is well documented across service businesses: a large share of inbound calls go unanswered, and most callers who reach voicemail never call back. They call the next result instead. That is the entire problem an AI receptionist solves — not clever conversation, just the fact that it always answers.
The calls it handles
Briefed on the conversations a commercial HVAC contractor actually has, not a generic script.
Business-critical failures
Server rooms, kitchens, labs, retail floors. Triaged by what the space does rather than by temperature, and escalated against contract response times.
Contracted maintenance
Planned visits against a schedule, with site access and permit requirements captured before anyone travels.
Out-of-hours callouts
Most commercial work happens when a building is empty. The agent handles the call and escalates to whoever is on rota.
Quotes and remedial works
Follow-on work from a service report, needing asset references and often a purchase order before it can proceed.
Intake
What it collects before booking
The details your team would ask for, gathered consistently on every call so the job arrives ready to schedule rather than needing a call back.
- Site name and address, plus the specific plant or asset reference
- What the affected space is used for
- Whether the failure is affecting operations now
- Contract or SLA reference if they have one
- Site access: permits, inductions, security, out-of-hours arrangements
- Purchase order number, or who authorises spend
Process
How we would build it
No discovery phase that bills for months. The first call is free and the proposal is fixed before anything is built.
-
Discovery call
Thirty minutes on how work reaches you today and where it stalls. You leave with a clear view of what is worth automating first, whether or not you hire us.
-
Written proposal
A fixed scope, a fixed price and a timeline, in writing, before any work begins. If we think a smaller piece would prove the value faster, we propose that instead.
-
Build and integrate
We build against your real stack and your real data, not a demo environment. You see progress as it happens rather than at a reveal.
-
Test with live traffic
Nothing takes over a customer conversation until it has been tested against how your enquiries actually arrive. We start narrow and widen once it holds.
-
Measure and adjust
Reporting on the numbers that matter — calls answered, enquiries qualified, time saved — and adjustments based on what the data shows.
FAQ
AI receptionists for commercial HVAC contractors, answered
If something is not covered here, ask us on the call — a straight answer costs you nothing.
Can it apply our SLA response times?
It applies the rules you give it: which sites are priority, what counts as business-critical, and who gets escalated to at what hour. The commitment is yours; consistency in applying it is what this adds.
Facilities managers expect a person.
They expect a fast, competent answer. The realistic use here is out-of-hours and overflow, where the alternative is a voicemail and a breached response window.
Can it capture PO numbers?
Yes, and it is scripted to ask before work is agreed, which saves the invoicing dispute that follows when nobody did.
How is this different from your domestic HVAC page?
Different caller, different intake, different definition of urgent. A domestic call asks about comfort and a vulnerable occupant; a commercial call asks about operations, assets and contract terms.
