How could AI change HVAC estimating, pricing transparency, and lead generation?

In this episode, I sit down with Adam Fusman @fuseman_ , founder of Fuse Service @fuseservice and creator of Estq @estq.io , to break down how the platform works and what it could mean for HVAC contractors.

In 2025, Fuse Service’s San Jose operation generated $46 million in revenue, with 30+ franchise locations across the U.S. generating another $24+ million. Now Adam is applying what he learned from scaling a home service company to Estiq.

In this video:
- How homeowners can explore nearby completed projects, real pricing, permits, and available rebates
- How the platform can turn homeowners researching HVAC costs into leads for contractors

Avoiding rebates? You're leaving money on the table 💸📉

If you're running a steady‑state business and don't want to grow, so be it. But if you want to win more projects, use rebates as a sales lever.

Example: Santa Clara, San Jose. I bid a standard heat pump — decent price, not super competitive.
Fuse bids the same heat pump plus the San Jose Clean Energy rebate, maybe a manufacturer rebate, a distributor rebate, and Comfortably California. Their final price is significantly lower. The homeowner picks them every time.

Don't use rebates? Your competitor does. And they're taking your customers.

How AI + CRM integration is changing contractors' businesses 🤖🔧

In the past six months, we realized: we can bring AI intelligence and power to contractors' businesses — meeting them right where they are.

The key unlock for us and our customers has been integrating with their CRMs. Contractors keep using their familiar platform, but now they get a powerful AI tool for all their back‑office work.

No process changes. No retraining the team. Just add “brains” to what already works.

That's a huge opportunity for them. And a great opportunity for us too.

Include rebates in your quotes — but don’t overpromise! 💰⚠️

One of the most important things for contractors: include rebates on your quotes if you want to win more jobs.
But you also have to be careful — don’t overpromise the money. Otherwise, the difference comes out of your pocket.

Program funds can run out. Rebate budgets get depleted. And if you promised a customer $2,000 and the program is dry — you eat the loss.

That’s why we built a system that constantly crawls rebate programs to keep data accurate and up to date.

If you’re a contractor, include rebates in your estimates and invoices. But always verify that funds are still available.

Why old contractors hate everything new? 🤷‍♂️📄

Everyone wants to do what they know. What they spent years training for and getting good at. And then suddenly — bam! — a new permit requirement, a new rebate form, a new program.

It's annoying. I get it.

But the world doesn't stand still. Rebates change. Permits get stricter. Customers want transparency. If you don't adapt to new processes — you'll lose money and reputation.

15 rebate programs just in the Bay Area? We're making it simple. 🤯💰

My co-founder Shane, when he started learning about this world, couldn't believe how many programs were out there and how much money was available. He'd never even heard of this stuff. He couldn't believe that there were 15 different rebate providers in the Bay Area alone.

That's always been an issue. And that's one of the issues we're solving.

The other issue is qualification. Making sure that:
✅ The homeowner qualifies
✅ The equipment qualifies
✅ The contractor did everything right

It's really confusing. It's complicated. Really complicated. We're building software, leveraging cutting‑edge AI to do this — and it's still complicated.

But we're doing it so you can get your money without the headache.

From Rebates to Permits – Resolve Automates Your Back Office 📄🤖

After our first year in the market, contractors started asking us:
— We love how you automate rebates. Can you do the same for permits? For warranty registrations?

That was a huge unlock for us and for our customers. Now Resolve automates all that back‑office paperwork. And here’s what’s happening: companies think they need to hire an office manager or a whole back‑office team… but they don’t.
They can do it all with Resolve, connected right into their existing CRM.

✅ No change to their team.
✅ No change to their workflow.
✅ Just less paperwork and faster results.

Resolve — outsource or hire? What's more cost‑effective? 🤔💼

Some companies already have back‑office staff. They use our software as a tool to augment their work — to do it more effectively, more efficiently, and free up time for more valuable projects.

Others have decided not to hire an additional staff person at all because they can just do the work with Resolve.

Hiring is expensive. Training takes time. Retention costs even more. Outsourcing gives you flexibility: you pay for results, not for a seat.

Who’s really paying for your rebates? Spoiler: it’s you. 💸🔌

— Where does all this money for rebates come from? Who’s paying for it?
— You are. I am. We all are.

The money comes from a few places, but mostly from utility customers — ratepayers, as they’re called.

On every PG&E, SoCalGas, and SoCalEdison bill, there’s a small surcharge. The utility collects it and is required to funnel it into these programs. Ratepayer‑funded programs.

Why? Because the State of California requires utilities — who are making a lot of money — to take some of that money and pay it back to homeowners. The people who are paying the bills but not necessarily getting all the benefits they could be.

So next time you get a rebate for a heat pump, insulation, or an EV charger… remember: you’ve already paid for it. A little bit at a time.
