Remote HVAC expert work — diagnose furnaces and AC with AI glasses
Peak season, every tech is booked three days out and the phone keeps ringing. A huge share of those calls are a tripped float switch, a filthy filter, a flame sensor that wants a scotch-brite pad. You can clear those in fifteen minutes from your kitchen table — and get paid for it.

Questions
HVAC technician, answered
Will this cannibalise my local service calls?
Most remote sessions are the calls you were never going to reach, or the ones that lose money on the truck. Experts routinely finish a session by referring the real job — to themselves, if the customer is nearby.
Can I see the equipment properly through glasses?
Yes — you're seeing exactly what they see, in real time, and you can draw into their field of view to point at the exact terminal or screw.
Is refrigerant work in scope?
You coach what is legal and safe for a homeowner to do themselves. Anything requiring certification becomes a referral — still a paid session.
