## Industry direct answers

### Plumbing

Finova answers plumbing calls 24/7, captures the job details, identifies urgent issues like burst pipes or blocked drains, books the work, and sends the details to the plumber or crew so callers are not left on voicemail.

Key points:
- Best fit: Owner-operators and small plumbing crews that miss calls while driving, working under a house, or handling another job.
- After-hours calls: Emergency and weekend plumbing calls are answered instead of waiting until the next business day.
- Booking workflow: Caller details, location, issue type, urgency, and booking information are captured before dispatch.
- Cost check: The missed-job audit compares your estimated lost plumbing work against the monthly plan cost.

### HVAC

Finova answers HVAC calls 24/7, handles seasonal call spikes, books air conditioning and heating jobs, and dispatches urgent cooling or heating issues to the right person without making callers wait for a callback.

Key points:
- Best fit: HVAC teams that miss calls during installs, site visits, heatwaves, cold snaps, or after-hours emergencies.
- Seasonal demand: Call overflow during summer and winter peaks is handled without adding a full-time receptionist.

Key points:

- Emergency calls: Safety-urgent jobs such as outages, RCD trips, switchboard faults, and after-hours callouts can be flagged quickly.

## Missed-job estimate method

The ledger is an estimate, not an industry benchmark. It uses your weekly call volume, your average job value, and Finova's missed-call model to show how much revenue may be at risk before a free audit reviews your real line data.

Formula: calls per week x missed-call risk x booking-loss risk x average job value x 52 weeks

Assumptions:
- Missed-call risk is modeled at 30 percent of weekly calls.
- Booking-loss risk is modeled at 50 percent of those missed opportunities.
- Average job value comes from the slider or your audit form input.
- Final figures are confirmed only after reviewing your actual call flow and job values.
