Homeowners expect comfort the moment they walk through the door—especially during the Virginia summer. A flawless air condition install not only delivers that comfort but also safeguards energy efficiency, indoor air quality and long-term operating costs. CountBricks brings cutting-edge AI estimating to the residential construction arena, providing contractors and remodelers with instant, reliable numbers they can trust.
Instead of scribbling notes or juggling spreadsheets, simply speak. CountBricks records the conversation onsite and converts it into structured task lists—sizing loads, equipment models, duct runs and labor hours—within seconds.
The cost of copper linesets or 16-SEER condensers can fluctuate daily. CountBricks’ live database updates prices in the background, ensuring your bid reflects today’s market, not last quarter’s catalog.
Upload PDFs and our AI pinpoints square footage, wall types and attic access points. That data feeds directly into the air condition install estimate so sizing calculations and permit fees stay accurate.
• Home orientation and shading
• Insulation R-values in walls, attic and crawlspace
• Window type, size and solar heat gain coefficients
• Occupant usage patterns and internal heat sources
CountBricks embeds Manual J formulas into every AI estimate. The result: the correct tonnage the first time—eliminating callbacks and warranty headaches.
1. Match SEER rating to regional energy codes and homeowner budget
2. Verify compressor staging (single-stage vs. variable speed) against duct design
3. Include smart thermostat integration for monitoring and remote diagnostics
4. Confirm line voltage and breaker compatibility before panel work
• CountBricks generates a task timeline with milestone alerts—permit issue, rough-in, inspection, and startup—synced to your mobile device.
• Material lists export directly to suppliers or your in-house warehouse, reducing pickup runs.
1. Verify drop cloth coverage to protect finished floors
2. Set air handler platform height per code using CountBricks’ in-app checklist
3. Route lineset with minimum 1/4-inch per foot pitch for oil return
4. Pressure test to 500 psi nitrogen and hold for 30 minutes
5. Evacuate to 350 microns and record readings in the CountBricks field log
6. Perform startup, documenting superheat/subcool values for warranty submission
Our takeoff tool highlights dimensional conflicts early, allowing you to switch to multi-position air handlers or modify framing before drywall.
CountBricks flags plaster walls and limited chase space, suggesting mini-split branches or high-velocity systems during estimating, not during install.
Because pricing is dynamic, you can swap a 15-SEER unit for an 18-SEER model and regenerate a proposal on the spot without re-entering data.
Once the numbers are final, export a branded PDF that includes:
• Scope of work with clear deliverables
• Equipment cut sheets auto-attached from the CountBricks library
• Payment schedule linked to construction milestones
• Warranty details and optional maintenance plans
The homeowner signs digitally, and your production team receives the same dataset—eliminating miscommunication from sale to install.
Line-item clarity means fewer price objections and faster approvals.
Voice-to-estimate reduces office hours. Most air condition install quotes are ready before you drive away from the site.
Handle five installs a month or fifty—CountBricks adapts automatically with no extra spreadsheets to manage.

The homeowner wanted to replace an aging 10-SEER system with a high-efficiency heat pump before listing the property. Traditional quoting methods projected three business days to gather supplier pricing and finalize load calcs. Using CountBricks, the contractor completed the following within two hours:
• Voice-recorded site walkthrough captured duct conditions and electrical panel data
• AI blueprint takeoff confirmed 2,410 conditioned square feet and highlighted two supply runs undersized for new airflow
• Real-time pricing selected a 17-SEER variable-speed unit and matched line-set accessories automatically
• Client-ready proposal, warranty docs and financing link sent before leaving the driveway
The job closed the same afternoon, and the installation finished two days ahead of schedule thanks to early material procurement. Post-installation data logged in CountBricks showed a 23% drop in energy consumption compared to the previous year—an attractive selling point for the listing agent.
• Customize your labor rates in the dashboard to reflect seasonal demand
• Tag frequently used equipment models as favorites for quicker proposals
• Use the built-in photo markup to flag attic obstacles for the crew
• Enable milestone notifications so inspectors and subcontractors stay synced
• Export completed jobs to accounting software with one click for seamless invoicing
