Emergency and install budgets mixed
With one campaign, a hot week of repair searches burns the budget meant for replacements.
HVAC search splits between people who need a tech today and people pricing a new system. Both are worth something. They need different campaigns, budgets, and pages.
With one campaign, a hot week of repair searches burns the budget meant for replacements.
Searches for filters, parts, or an equipment maker’s customer service trigger ads if nobody adds negatives.
A heat pump searcher lands on a page about maintenance plans and duct cleaning, then tries the next result.
Replacement, repair, and ductless run separately, each with its own budget and page.
Filters, parts, thermostat manuals, HVAC school, and tech jobs blocked before launch.
Replacement spend holds steady; repair spend rises or falls with open service slots.
Online bookings matched to installed systems, so you see which keyword groups sold equipment.
Example written by BlueSmith to show the approach. Not a client ad or a result.
Every ad budget has a line where the jobs stop paying for it. Find that line before you get near it.
Break-even monthly ad spend: $32,000
4 signed jobs at $25,000 and 35% margin, minus $3,000 in other fees.

If you have techs to keep busy, yes, in their own campaign. Just don’t let repair share a budget with replacements, or one hot week will spend it all on repair clicks.
They catch different moments. Google finds people already searching, which skews toward urgent need. Facebook reaches owners of older systems before they search. We usually start with Meta and add search once the replacement page books well.
They’re a separate Google product that charges per lead. Some HVAC companies run them alongside search ads. We manage standard search campaigns that point to your own pages.
When Google is in your scope, yes: services, photos from recent installs, and service-area settings kept current.
