ABOUT
Built for technicians in the field
HVAC-Buddy is a field-first toolkit of HVAC calculators designed to be fast on mobile, clear about units, and honest about assumptions.
Focus: speed + trustMode: anonymous-firstPlanned: sign-in + saving
Current build note: This site is being rebuilt in Next.js. Authentication (Clerk), persistence (Convex), and tier gating (with billing later) are part of the v1 roadmap.
What HVAC-Buddy is
Field-firstThe goal is to make common field calculations quick, reproducible, and easy to document.
- Calculator pages are designed for one-handed mobile use.
- Results include copyable summaries for job notes.
- Guidance avoids false certainty: OEM procedures come first.
- Anonymous usage is supported; sign-in is planned for saving history.
Safety note: HVAC-Buddy tools provide guidance and estimates. Always follow OEM procedures, local codes, and safe work practices.
What’s next (high level)
Planned- PT datasets (versioned) and fast PT lookup that can work offline after first load.
- Sign-in + saved calculation history for returning users.
- Feature gating by tier (Free / Pro / Team / Enterprise) with honest UX.
- Team plan with server-side seat enforcement (3 active seats) by default.
