Up and running in 3 steps

No forms. No setup wizard. We learn your HVAC business the old-fashioned way — by talking to you.

Step 1

Sign up in 30 seconds

Name, phone, email. No credit card. Your 2-month free trial starts immediately.

Step 2

We call you to learn your HVAC business

Claudessa calls you and learns everything: residential and commercial? What tonnage do you service? Emergency rate? Do you install mini-splits? What's your service area? Maintenance plan pricing? Everything a new receptionist needs — learned through conversation, not forms.

Step 3

Every HVAC call answered, 24/7

AC out in a heat wave? Claudessa answers, qualifies whether it's a warranty call or billable service, gives your rate, and books it. Furnace won't ignite at midnight? Emergency protocol kicks in — you get an instant text with the details.

Emergency Ready

Handles HVAC emergencies — summer and winter.

No AC in July. No heat in January. Both are emergencies your callers need handled NOW. Claudessa knows the difference between a "my AC isn't blowing cold" routine call and a "my furnace is making a loud banging noise and smells like gas" emergency. It asks the right diagnostic questions, gives your emergency rate if applicable, and texts you immediately when it matters.

No AC — Saturday 2:15 PM

AC stopped cooling. 98 degrees outside. Caller hung up after 6 rings.

Answered — Saturday 2:15 PM

Emergency: AC not cooling, 3-ton Carrier unit. Homeowner given your diagnostic fee ($89). Service appointment booked for today. You texted immediately with full details.

Knows YOUR HVAC business — because we asked.

Do you install ductless mini-splits? What brands do you service? Do you offer maintenance agreements? What's the diagnostic fee? Claudessa knows all of this — because we called you and asked. When a homeowner calls about a Carrier AC unit, Claudessa confirms you service Carrier and books the appointment. No generic scripts. No "someone will call you back."

Common questions about HVAC answering services

How much does an answering service for HVAC companies cost?

Claudessa starts at $29/mo for 100 calls. Growth ($69/mo) covers 300 calls. Pro ($129/mo) is unlimited. All plans include a 2-month free trial with no credit card required. Traditional HVAC answering services cost $200-400/mo.

Can an AI handle HVAC emergency calls like no-heat situations?

Yes. Claudessa learns your emergency protocol during onboarding — what qualifies as an emergency (no heat in winter, AC failure in summer, gas smell), your emergency dispatch rate, and whether to text you or transfer the call live. It triages correctly and gets you the details instantly.

How does Claudessa learn my HVAC business?

We call you and have a real conversation. Claudessa learns your service area, rates for common jobs (AC repair, furnace install, duct cleaning, maintenance plans), emergency procedures, brands you service, financing options, and how you want calls handled. No forms, no scripting.

Can Claudessa book HVAC service appointments?

Yes. Claudessa checks your availability and books appointments on the spot — AC tune-ups, furnace inspections, maintenance visits. The caller gets confirmation before hanging up. No phone tag, no missed appointments.

How is Claudessa different from other HVAC answering services?

Most answering services use generic scripts and take messages. Claudessa actually knows your HVAC business — your rates for AC repair vs furnace install, which brands you service, your maintenance plan pricing. Callers get real answers, not "someone will call you back." Starting at $29/mo vs $200+/mo for traditional services.

Hear it for yourself.

Enter your number. Claudessa calls you in 30 seconds — as the receptionist for a real HVAC company. Ask about AC repair pricing. Report a no-heat emergency. Book a maintenance appointment. Then imagine that's YOUR business.
