Service Contract Benefits
Implementing HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) service contracts allows service providers to retain long-term clients, which creates more cash flow and, in turn, steady business growth.
A service contract ensures that the client and HVAC service provider are on the same page regarding the services to be rendered and their associated costs. It also helps build the client’s trust by including clauses such as the inspection of services and mutual indemnification.
HVAC Service Contract Types
While there are many ways to bundle HVAC services, a contract will generally fall into one of these three categories:
- Preventative Maintenance: This cost-effective option includes regular maintenance services, such as inspecting, testing, and cleaning equipment.
- Full Labor: These contracts cover all preventative maintenance and also include labor required for repairs and replacement of parts.
- Full Coverage: Full coverage contracts include all the above as well as on-call emergency services.
