No-show reminder (SMS)
Hi {first_name}, this is {business}. Reminder of your appointment on {date} at {time}. Reply C to confirm or R to reschedule. We look forward to seeing you!
Why this matters for hvac companies
Seasonal spikes mean your office phone rings nonstop in July and January — often while techs are in attics and crawl spaces. AI booking captures tune-up requests and emergency intakes 24/7, while your dispatcher focuses on routing trucks, not repeating 'what's your address?'
When not to use AI here
Gas leaks, carbon monoxide alarms, and no-heat-in-winter emergencies for vulnerable households need immediate human escalation — configure keyword triggers, not generic hold music.
Your first week
- Day 1: Define service areas and job types the AI can book.
- Day 2: Connect calendar rules for AM/PM windows.
- Day 3: Forward overflow calls when the office line is busy.
- Day 4–5: Review booked jobs vs. missed calls in peak week.
