Why iHVAC
Built for homeowners who are tired of getting played.
Free educational triage
Describe what the system is doing. Dale helps organize symptoms, offers safe observations, and explains when a licensed professional may be the right next step.
Fair Price Guide
iHVAC publishes typical market ranges for common HVAC work so you know what to expect. Independent techs set their own prices — always ask for a written estimate before work begins.
Credential-gated opportunities
An eligible tech needs a license on file and current insurance before receiving an opportunity. Providers remain responsible for the credentials their work requires.
Honest request status
See whether your request was received, whether availability is being checked, and whether a provider has accepted. A request is not an appointment until acceptance.
Verified-job reviews
Reviews are tied to completed work so reputation comes from an actual service record.
Private availability request
Your contact details and service notes are saved privately; they are not posted publicly or broadcast to social channels.
The Process
Three steps. Zero surprises.
