Rusti.Red HVAC business software HVAC is the complicated part. The software shouldn't be.
One system built specifically for residential HVAC, with the price book, quote templates, field tools, follow-ups, reporting, and job costing already included. Keep jobs moving without constantly checking on the office, the techs, or what still needs to be followed up on.
From $45 a month, every feature included. No feature tiers. Month to month, no long-term contracts.
Run the shop without having to hover over it
See what needs you
Quotes sent, approval rate, revenue, unpaid invoices, and this week's jobs are all right there, along with the requests, deposits, and visits waiting on you.
Build the week without the back-and-forth
Booking requests land beside the schedule with the customer's problem, system age, and preferred day. Pick the arrival window and tech, and the confirmation goes out automatically.
The truck leaves. Rusti.Red keeps working
Quotes that go quiet get follow-ups on days 2 and 7. Unpaid invoices get reminders on days 3, 7, and 14. Once the job is paid, Rusti.Red asks for the review, then brings the customer back with your booking link when the next tune-up or service is due.
All of that follow-up happens in the background, without adding another task to your day.
You still stay in control. Edit any message, see what's queued, or stop one before it sends.
Easy for your crew to use from day one
The office and the crew work from the same straightforward system. Techs pull up the job, check equipment history, add notes, build a quote, and take payment right from their phone, without bouncing through a bunch of screens or calling the office for help.
Keep working when the signal drops
Today's jobs, the price book, and quote templates stay on the phone, even offline. Quotes, signatures, photos, notes, equipment records, and cash or check payments save on the device and send when the signal comes back.
One clear next step
Each visit centers on one big button that changes as the job moves along: On my way, Finish, Take payment. You decide what each kind of job needs before Finish, so the work stays simple without giving up control.
Bigger jobs, without the billing mess
Run the whole install as one job, across as many visits as it takes. Collect a deposit, bill in stages, and let Rusti.Red keep track of what's already been paid, so you're not piecing it all together at the end.
For property managers or customers with several properties, roll their invoices into one statement and one payment link instead of sending them one by one.
Every feature, for less
The price changes only with the number of people who log in.
