Veterans bring a wealth of skills and experiences to civilian jobs. Hiring veterans in the HVAC and plumbing industries is a strategic move that can enhance your business.

Let’s face it: The era of cold calling is dead. At a time when U.S. consumers receive four billion robocalls a month—that’s nearly one to two phone calls every second—no homeowner wants to answer an unknown call in hopes that it just might be a plumbing or HVAC sales tech offering a preventative maintenance plan coupon. In today’s day and (digital) age, you’ll need a bona fide sales strategy.

For the past several decades, growing global climate concerns and surging demand for sustainable products have prompted countless industries to adjust their operations to reduce not only their consumers’ carbon footprint, but also their own. From evolving customer preferences to escalating emissions regulations, the decarbonization process in HVAC has now become simply unavoidable. 

While evolving rules and regulations are nothing out of the ordinary for the HVAC industry, our sector has begun to encounter some pretty substantial impacts recently. Fast-paced shifts toward eco-friendly and sustainable HVAC solutions have led lawmakers to implement complex regulatory changes that are soon to, or have already begun to, impact HVAC contractors and customers alike.

When it comes to HVAC warranties, the majority of homeowners and new buyers aren’t aware of the full capabilities and features of their system plans. Beyond the extended coverage for component defects, system damages, and general breakdowns, many HVAC extended warranties are also equipped to transfer from the original or current owner of the property to the recent buyer.
