Repairs, installs and maintenance plans

HVAC repair is usually a diagnostic or service fee plus labor and parts. Installs are often sold as a package price, then invoiced with the equipment, materials and labor listed so the customer can match the invoice to the quote.

Maintenance agreements can be invoiced per visit or as a monthly or yearly plan. Put the plan period in the line detail so the customer knows what the charge covers.

Rental property is a big share of HVAC work: the tenant calls, the owner or manager pays. Bill the owner and name the unit in the service address, so the manager can match your invoice to their work order.

Lines an HVAC invoice should carry

  • Equipment make, model and serial. In the line detail for installs and replacements, since manufacturers ask for them at warranty registration.
  • Refrigerant. Type and pounds added, for example R-410A or R-454B, on a line of its own. Only EPA Section 608 certified technicians can buy refrigerant for stationary systems, so some contractors add the technician's certification number.
  • Diagnostic fee. Separate from the repair, with a note if it is credited once the customer approves the work.
  • Service address. The unit or building the system serves.
  • Mechanical or HVAC license number. Wherever your state or city issues one.
  • Disposal and recovery. Hauling away an old unit or recovering refrigerant, billed as its own charge.
  • Next service date. In the notes, so the invoice doubles as the system's service record.

Writing up a service call

  1. Name the system. Furnace, heat pump or split air conditioner, with make, model and serial in the detail line.
  2. Bill the diagnosis. One line for the diagnostic fee. If it is credited on approval, add the credit as a negative line.
  3. List parts and refrigerant. Each part with its make; refrigerant by type and pounds.
  4. Add labor. Hours at your rate, or the flat price for the repair from your price book.
  5. Record what comes next. Warranty terms and the next recommended visit go in the notes before you send it.

Total, net 30$465.25

The sample adds no tax. In Ohio, work on a building's built-in heating and cooling counts as a construction contract, so the contractor pays tax on parts when buying them. Where a state taxes HVAC parts or labor on the bill, mark those lines taxable.

HVAC invoice example with diagnostic service fee, labor and dual run capacitor and the total due

Payment terms: Net 30

The sample bills an apartment complex, so it uses Net 30, which many commercial accounts expect. A homeowner with a dead air conditioner in July usually pays the same day.

Quoting a replacement, confirming a payment

A system replacement is usually sold from a written quote; build it with the HVAC estimate template using the same equipment lines. Take the deposit and send an HVAC receipt so the customer has proof it was paid.

Frequently asked questions

How do I invoice an HVAC installation?
List the equipment with make, model and serial numbers, then materials such as line sets and pads, then labor and any permit fee. If you quoted a package price, you can show the package as one line and put the breakdown in the line details.
What goes on an HVAC maintenance visit invoice?
The plan name and the period it covers, the checks done, any parts or refrigerant added with type and amount, and the next service date. A plan visit with nothing extra due can still be invoiced at zero as a service record.
Do I charge sales tax on HVAC work?
It depends on the state and on whether the job is a repair or a capital improvement. Mark the lines that are taxable in your state and enter the rate; the generator taxes only those lines.
Should a warranty repair still get an invoice?
Yes. Invoice it at zero, or bill only what the warranty does not cover, such as labor after the labor warranty ends. Name the failed part and the warranty claim number so the record is complete.
