For U.S. HVAC contractors working directly with businesses, property owners and commercial clients.
A professional commercial HVAC installation contract template built around the way commercial projects are actually delivered, whether you are removing an existing system and installing its replacement or installing a completely new HVAC system where none exists.
Old equipment removal, refrigerant recovery where required, existing ductwork and piping, roof curbs and adapters, electrical and gas interfaces, crane and rigging coordination, shutdowns, occupied-building conditions and the point where new equipment has to connect to an existing building.
New equipment, new distribution and project interfaces, including ductwork, refrigerant or hydronic piping, condensate, controls, ventilation, power and gas coordination, startup, testing, commissioning and handover according to the actual project scope.
The agreement is designed so the scope can reflect the job in front of you. Replacement work can identify what is being removed, retained or reused. New-installation work can identify what the contractor is furnishing and installing from the ground up.
RTUs, AHUs, split systems, heat pumps, VRF/VRV, make-up air, ductwork, refrigerant piping, hydronic interfaces, condensate, controls, BAS/BMS coordination, curb adapters, crane lifts, shutdowns, equipment lead times, change orders, startup and project closeout.
Hundreds of contractor agreements with state-specific versions adjusted around the contracting requirements that apply where you work. Whether you're in Florida, Texas, California, New York or anywhere else in the USA, select your state and get the version built for that jurisdiction.
Commercial HVAC replacement and installation projects can involve equipment procurement, demolition, lifts, existing services, occupied premises, other trades, inspections, startup and closeout. Your agreement should be able to follow the project from the signed scope through handover.
One-time purchase. Built to reuse with future commercial clients.
For commercial HVAC contractors working directly with business and property-owner clients on replacement, retrofit and new-installation projects.
Trade-specific terms ready to support the commercial HVAC estimates, proposals and quotations you already issue.
Record added work, revised equipment, discovered conditions, scope changes and agreed adjustments to project price or time.
A professional record for completion, outstanding punch items, startup or commissioning information and handover documentation as applicable to the job.
A general service agreement may record a price and a broad description. A commercial HVAC project agreement needs room for the actual equipment, existing conditions, project interfaces, schedule, changes and closeout.
Old equipment, refrigerant recovery where required, disposal, curb or connection changes, retained duct/piping/services and the conditions discovered once the old system comes out.
Equipment, ductwork, piping, ventilation, controls and service interfaces can be defined according to who is responsible for each part of the new installation.
Commercial projects can depend on lead times, approved substitutions, lifts, shutdowns, other trades, facility access and scheduled work windows.
Startup, commissioning, TAB, inspection and closeout requirements can be identified when they form part of the project documents or agreed scope.
Commercial work may involve load calculations, duct design, TAB, commissioning, manufacturer startup requirements, permits or engineer/consultant documents depending on the system and project. The contract provides the framework to identify those responsibilities; it does not pretend every project follows the same design or certification route.
Also built for contractors looking for a commercial HVAC replacement contract, commercial HVAC contractor agreement, HVAC installation agreement or professional paperwork for commercial HVAC system replacement, retrofit and new installation work.
Commercial replacement and new-installation work can look very different from one building to the next. This agreement is designed to give contractors a professional framework for the scope, equipment, site, schedule, changes, payment and closeout without pretending every HVAC project follows the same specification.
Who it is for and the types of projects it is built to manage.
Because removing the old system can reveal work that was impossible to see at proposal stage.
A new system still depends on clear responsibility for every connection around it.
Commercial HVAC work has to fit around the building as well as the mechanical system.
Installation is not the final project milestone until the agreed startup and closeout work is dealt with.
Commercial mechanical projects need more than general contract language. The document structure brings practical HVAC and construction knowledge together with attorney knowledge so the paperwork follows the project from scope and procurement through installation and closeout.
Replacement conditions, equipment procurement, duct and piping interfaces, controls, crane access, occupied buildings, shutdowns, changes, startup and handover.
Professional contract structure and legal input strengthen how the commercial relationship, responsibilities, changes, payment and project administration are recorded.
Large mechanical contractors can have contract managers, administrators and outside counsel supporting every commercial project. Independent and growing HVAC contractors still need professional paperwork that understands the work they are pricing, installing and standing behind.
