AI Receptionist for After-Hours
After-hours HVAC leads are high intent, especially when someone has no cooling at 9 p.m. or wakes up to a failed furnace. This automation answers calls or texts when the office is closed, collects the key job details, and either books the visit or routes true emergencies to the on-call person.
How It Works
Answer after-hours inquiries
When the office line is closed, calls or texts are routed to an automated receptionist flow instead of voicemail.
Collect the essentials
The flow gathers the customer's name, address, issue type, equipment symptoms, and how urgent the situation is.
Route or book the request
Routine needs can be booked into the next available slot, while emergency situations can alert the on-call technician or manager.
Log the lead for the team
The intake record is saved to the CRM or dispatch system so the office sees exactly what happened overnight.
