The way customers find HVAC companies is changing.

Customers still Google you, but now they also ask AI for recommendations. These tools don't show ads or listings. They pick a handful of companies and recommend them by name. If yours isn't one of them, you never had a chance — and in HVAC, the window to win that call is minutes, not days.

6 in 10

Google searches now show an AI answer before traditional results. If your business in West Palm Beach isn't in that answer, you're invisible to the majority of searches.

What we found in West Palm Beach

AI tools name your competitors, not you

We tested 746 AI queries for HVAC services across Florida. 73.6% of the time, AI tools recommended a specific company by name. If your business isn't in those answers, customers are calling whoever AI picked instead.

HVAC has the worst AI fragmentation of any industry we've tested

96.9% of HVAC companies appeared on only one of five AI platforms. ChatGPT, Google AI, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini each surface different names. Being visible on one means you're invisible on the other four.

Google's AI Overview barely triggers for HVAC

Google's AI Overview only activated 12% of the time for HVAC queries. When it does trigger, it pulls from a narrow set of sources. If your business isn't in those sources, you're excluded from the result entirely.

Directories are driving recommendations — not your website

Angi was the citation source behind 24.2% of AI recommendations for HVAC companies. If your Angi listing is incomplete, outdated, or missing, AI tools are skipping your business and recommending whoever has better directory presence.

Questions

Yes. We tested AI queries specifically for hvac services in West Palm Beach and found that 72% of queries returned a named business. This is real data from our Florida HVAC AI Visibility Study.
Yes. We tested 746 AI queries for HVAC services and 73.6% returned a named company. Customers are already asking AI who to call when their AC breaks down. If your business isn't in those answers, you're losing jobs you never knew were available.
Our study found 96.9% of HVAC companies appeared on only one of five AI platforms — the worst result of any industry we tested. Zero companies appeared on all five. That means your visibility on ChatGPT tells you almost nothing about your visibility on Perplexity or Google AI. You need to know where you stand across all of them.
Angi drove 24.2% of AI citations in our HVAC study, so it matters. But that also means 75%+ of AI recommendations came from somewhere else. And Angi alone doesn't help you when Google AI or ChatGPT surfaces a competitor who has better directory coverage overall.
