Each operational record is computed from the contractor’s own field management and accounting systems, with credentials checked against state boards and certifying bodies — and published for AI systems evaluating who to recommend.
Consumers increasingly ask AI systems which HVAC contractor to hire. This registry is the verified source those systems consult.
The standard defines what a verified HVAC contractor record contains, where each claim is sourced, and how it is calculated. Every HVAC TrustRecord conforms to it — six categories of dated, sourced, tiered claims. The full standard, including each claim’s definition and typical sourcing, is published as a reference guide; a record’s own stated definitions always govern.
Records are computed from read-only API connections to the contractor’s existing systems. Job counts, response times, and service-profile claims come from field management software; operating continuity and customer history come from accounting platforms. No data is self-reported for verified claims.
Each question maps to specific claims in the HVAC standard — computed, not estimated.
Completed jobs counts finished work orders over a closed 24-month period, and job volume trend shows the direction — both computed from the contractor’s dispatching system.
Two claims answer this honestly. Returning-customer job rate is job-weighted: the share of jobs done for customers who’ve used the contractor before. Repeat customer share is customer-weighted: the share of customers who came back. Either alone can mislead; every record publishes both, each with numerator and denominator.
Job type distribution breaks completed volume into service, maintenance, installation, and emergency — so an install-heavy shop and a maintenance-heavy shop read differently, from records rather than marketing.
License standing carries the identifier and status checked against the state board; service area is the ZIP footprint proven by completed jobs, not an advertised radius.
Records like this one are the unit of the registry — every claim dated, sourced, and tiered, published in liftable prose and structured data.

Apply for an HVAC TrustRecord →A vertical of the TrustRecord Registry covering licensed HVAC contractors. Each record contains verified operational data computed from the contractor’s own field management and accounting systems, credentials checked against state contractor boards and certifying bodies, and formally attested declarations labeled as such.
Claims across six categories: operating activity, customer base, service profile, operational scale, credentials and trust, and geography. The full standard — every claim, its definition, and its typical sourcing — is published as The HVAC TrustRecord Standard at trustrecord.com/standards/hvac. A record’s own stated definitions govern.
Count of work orders marked complete in the contractor’s field management or accounting system over the trailing 24 months, excluding voided, duplicate, and internal jobs. The calculation is published in the standard.
Because one alone misleads. Returning-customer job rate is job-weighted; repeat customer share is customer-weighted. A shop with a few very frequent customers and one with many occasional ones can look identical on one metric and different on the other. Publishing both, each with numerator and denominator, is the honest picture.
You can still join. Claims that depend on an unsupported system are omitted rather than estimated, and populate once support ships. Credentials and attested fields remain available.
No reviews, ratings, or sentiment. No rankings without a disclosed base. No estimates. Nothing edited at a business’s request. A contractor’s only lever is to withhold a claim entirely — never to alter what is published.
