Pay Per Lead Services in Kings County, NY for HVAC & Air Conditioning Companies

Brooklyn's housing is old, and the census numbers make the point. The median building in Kings County dates to 1944, and 517,749 of its 1,100,772 housing units date from 1939 or before. (Source: data.census.gov.) Most of those were built long before central air existed, around a boiler in the basement and a radiator under each window. Heating and cooling work here is therefore less about swapping a box in the yard and more about fitting modern comfort into buildings that were never designed for it. The building type decides the lead.

Brownstones and row houses

In Park Slope, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Crown Heights and Brooklyn Heights, the owner of a row house or brownstone is the caller to want in the borough. The typical requests are ductless mini-split systems that cool the floors without tearing open plaster ceilings, high-velocity small-duct systems in a gut renovation, and heat pumps meant to take load off an ageing boiler. These are planned, multi-visit jobs, and the owner usually wants a site survey before any number is discussed.

Pre-war walk-ups and apartment buildings

Owners occupy only 29.5% of the borough's occupied homes. (Source: data.census.gov.) In Bushwick, Flatbush, Sunset Park and much of the rest of Brooklyn, the person calling is a tenant, and the heat comes from a central boiler the landlord controls. A tenant whose radiators are cold on a January night has a building problem, not a job for you, and we keep those calls off your phone. The useful leads in these buildings come from owners and managers: a small landlord in Bay Ridge planning to replace through-wall sleeves, or a co-op board pricing a building-wide change.

Summer is a health issue

New York City's emergency management office calls extreme heat the deadliest weather emergency in the city, with more than 500 deaths a year tied to it. (Source: nyc.gov.) In top-floor apartments and older row houses near Coney Island and across central Brooklyn, a heat wave produces a burst of window-unit failures and urgent requests for a first proper cooling system. Winter brings its own cold, snow and ice, and with it the boiler-adjacent calls that HVAC firms with hydronic experience can take.

The licences that apply

New York State sets no HVAC licence of its own, so the rules here are the city's. Any refrigerating system large enough to need an FDNY permit has to run under someone holding the FDNY Q-01 Certificate of Qualification (Source: dos.ny.gov), and residential improvement work calls for the DCWP Home Improvement Contractor licence, backed by a $20,000 bond or a $200 Trust Fund fee in its place. (Source: nyc.gov.) Kings County leads go only to companies that hold what the job needs.

Office-tower plant rooms in Downtown Brooklyn stay off your list if you do residential work, as do callers wanting a factory warranty honoured on a make you do not handle and anyone ringing twice about one job.

The New York rule for a HVAC company taking leads in Kings County: The NYS Department of State says: "NYS does not license home improvement contractors, but some counties and local municipalities do"; No statewide HVAC contractor licence was found on an official state page, so HVAC and refrigeration rules are set locally (in New York City, refrigerating systems that need an FDNY permit must be supervised by a holder of an FDNY Certificate of Qualification, Q-01) (Source: dos.ny.gov).

Brooklyn, for a HVAC company working these leads: New York City requires a Home Improvement Contractor licence from the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP): "A person or business must have a Home Improvement Contractor license to do construction, repair, remodeling, or other home improvement work to any residential land or building in New York City"; Applicants post a $20,000 surety bond (or enrol in the Trust Fund, $200 fee), pass a 30-question exam, and the licence period is 2 years (Source: nyc.gov).

Worth knowing as a HVAC company buying leads in Kings County: The NYS Department of State's consumer guidance: "You have three days to cancel after signing a contract for home improvements," and cancellations must be in writing; It also advises a written contract with start and finish dates, scope of work and itemized price, and not paying the full amount upfront (Source: dos.ny.gov).
