Fake HVAC sites flood Google search results
Orlando contractors say AI-generated websites with fake reviews, phone numbers, and addresses are pushing legitimate HVAC companies out of search results and causing them to lose business. See the story here. Are you encountering this as well?

haven't seen it locally! but i did receive a quote request from a contractor that was entirely AI generated, they had AI take plans and make up a system, and then part it out. the list would be mostly complete, installer would have what they need, but would have upsold the job by about 3-4X what is needed for a beautiful install. funny enough I will do this for free for my customers, and include piping diagrams, flowrate requirements, pipe sizing the whole ball of wax. So please use the AI tools to generate your material lists because its less work for me and will make me more money 😁
(JK please don't overcharge the customer)
