Want the real quote, done for you?
This is a rough number. Vorkeon builds the full HVAC quote from one sentence:
- Materials with waste, and crew time from your own pace
- Current prices from building-supply stores near the job
- A clean PDF with your logo that the customer signs on their phone
- Then the invoice, reminders and your crew's hours, in one app
What drives the price of an HVAC job
- Equipment size. The right size comes from a load calculation, not just the old unit.
- Efficiency rating. Higher-efficiency furnaces, air conditioners and heat pumps cost more.
- Ductwork. Reusing ducts is cheaper than new runs or changes.
- Venting and gas. New flue, gas line or condensate drain work.
- Electrical. A new breaker, disconnect or wiring for heat pumps.
- Permits and inspection. Often needed for gas and refrigerant work.
A worked example
A made-up example to show the method, not a price guide. 2 units (a furnace and an air conditioner) at 3,000 equipment and 1,500 labor each: 2 × 4,500 = 9,000. Add 600 for a new pad, line set and disconnect, and 250 for permits, for 9,850. With 20% markup the quote is 11,820 before sales tax. Equipment prices and rules vary a lot by area.
What to put in your HVAC quote
- Equipment make, model, size and efficiency rating
- Load calculation or how you chose the size
- Duct, venting, gas and electrical work included
- Thermostat, pad, line set and refrigerant
- Removal and disposal of old equipment
- Permits, start-up check and warranty terms

HVAC quoting questions
Why not just replace an HVAC unit with the same size?
The old unit may have been the wrong size, or the home may have changed with new windows or insulation. A load calculation helps pick the right size and avoids short cycling.
Should an HVAC quote include more than one option?
Many contractors show two or three choices, such as standard and high efficiency. It helps the customer compare running cost and price without asking for a new quote.
How do I price an HVAC job?
Multiply the number of units by your material and labor cost per unit, then add your markup to cover overhead and profit. Add tax on top when you send the quote.
What markup should I use?
Use the markup that covers your overhead (vehicle, insurance, tools, office) and leaves the profit you want. Many contractors land between 15% and 35%, but your own costs decide it.
