Common Questions from HVAC Contractors

โšก

Will it work for new construction and service work?

Yes. Use it for new commercial construction, tenant improvements, rooftop changeouts, PM contracts, and service calls. Attach drawings, specs, and equipment info to each job.

๐Ÿ“‹

Can we track refrigerant and tech certifications?

Yes. Log refrigerant added or recovered on every unit, tied to the tech’s EPA 608 cert. Pull a clean report for audits or compliance anytime.

๐Ÿ’ก

Can we manage PM contracts and service tickets?

Yes. Schedule recurring PM visits, auto-dispatch the tech with the right checklist, and invoice against the service agreement. Emergency service calls add on top.

๐Ÿ‘ท

Can new techs and seasoned techs both use it?

Yes. Role-based access โ€” new techs clock in, capture photos, and fill out forms. Senior techs approve work and sign off on commissioning. Owner sees margin, hours, and callbacks in one view.

๐Ÿ“ท

Does it work without cell signal?

Yes. The app works offline in mechanical rooms, rooftops, and basements. Everything syncs when the tech gets signal back.

๐Ÿ’ต

How much does it cost?

Free trial, no credit card required. Most mechanical contractor shops run SubTrade for $299-599/month โ€” less than one missed service call. See pricing โ†’
