How One Hour Is Already Perfecting HVAC-As-A-Service

Times are always changing. Every year, we must take a look at how consumer’s behaviors and expectations are changing. In a recent article published by ACHR News, it is noted that the HVAC industry is beginning to change in big ways to meet this new consumer service model. And One Hour Heating and Air Conditioning is already ahead of the curve when it comes to the likes of HVAC-as-a-Service.

What Are Consumers Searching for?

At the end of the day, consumers are still searching for help keeping their homes comfortable. That hasn’t changed. What has changed is how customers are going about purchasing services. In recent years, the rise of subscription services has allowed consumers to opt-in for solutions that offload the responsibilities that come with traditional ownership via the convenient nature of monthly charges and memberships.

What Does This Mean for HVAC Companies?

While traditional HVAC contractors have continued to be in the business of “selling equipment,” ACHR highlights the importance of the equipment only being a means to an end, with the end being ensuring homeowners have reliable access to clean and comfortable air in their homes, and why HVAC contractors must adapt to save themselves from disappearing like companies of the past.

The HVAC industry is set to meet these demands quicker than other industries due to the expensive nature of HVAC equipment. Plus, the average customer doesn’t necessarily care about the equipment they have, they just know it needs to be fixed to give them reliable access to quality heating and cooling in their home.

HVAC contractors must ensure they are:

• True experts in their respected fields
• Providing upfront and competitive prices
• Providing outstanding customer service
• Experts in their marketing and sales strategy

It’s critical to ensure HVAC companies and individual contractors have a plan in place to begin mastering these components. If not, you won’t be fully prepared to meet overcome these new disruptions to the market.
