How the estimate works
Each job is the range the cost guides publish for it. Where the guides split a job by the kind of water heater, a gas furnace's efficiency or a mini-split's zones, you pick the kind. For a leak or a clog after hours, the guides' after-hours surcharge is added once.
A whole-home heat pump system isn't here, since the published figures give it a floor and no top. The estimate doesn't know your house, your equipment or your area. Treat it as a range to plan around, then ask contractors near you to look at the job.
