This Is Why You're Here

Why HVACs Come to Us Instead of Their Bank

1

Summer hit early and you're booking $15K residential installs back-to-back. But you need $60K in Carrier and Daikin inventory upfront and your distributor cut your credit terms.

2

You won a $350K commercial HVAC contract for a new office building. Mobilization and equipment cost $90K before the first progress payment. Your bank wants to see the signed contract — which you already have.

3

It's January, installations are slow, but your 6 techs still need paychecks. You need $40K to bridge to spring when service calls pick back up.

4

Your refrigerant recovery machine failed inspection. EPA compliance means a $12K replacement plus $3K in reclaim equipment — and you can't legally work without it. Your supply house doesn't offer financing.

5

A school district awarded you a $280K HVAC replacement contract for 3 buildings. Payment is net-90 through the district's procurement office. You need $65K in rooftop units and ductwork before you touch the first building.

★★★★★

Scored a $350K commercial HVAC job but needed $90K to mobilize. Got three offers in 24 hours and picked the best rate. Couldn't believe how fast it moved.

Why HVAC Businesses Choose Basecamp

❄️

Seasonal Ramp-Up Capital on Demand

You need $60K in Carrier and Daikin mini-splits before summer hits but your distributor just cut your credit terms. We fund inventory purchases in 24-48 hours so you're stocked before peak season.

🏢

Commercial Rooftop Units Financed Fast

A single commercial rooftop unit costs $30K-$80K. Your customer won't prepay and the supply house wants COD. Equipment financing with the unit as collateral gets you installed on schedule.

📆

Off-Season Payroll Doesn't Stop

January is dead but your 6 techs still need paychecks. A line of credit drawn in November and repaid by April costs about $2K in interest — way cheaper than rehiring a trained team in spring.

🔧

Recovery Machines and Reclaim Equipment

EPA compliance means $8K-$15K in recovery machines and refrigerant management tools. Finance the compliance gear and keep your cash for the installs that actually make money.

HVAC Business Loan FAQs

HVAC Business Loans — $10K to $10M+

Look — HVAC is a seasonal trap. You do 70% of your revenue between May and September, but your distributor wants $60K in Carrier inventory paid upfront and your 6 techs need paychecks in January when the phone stops ringing. I talk to HVAC contractors every week stuck in this exact cycle. Their bank sees winter deposits drop and panics. We don't.

We fund HVAC companies — residential installs, commercial rooftop units, refrigeration, ductwork — in as little as 24 hours. One application. 70+ lenders. No hard credit pull. I've funded $80K commercial rooftop unit packages, $40K winter payroll bridges, $25K recovery machine upgrades, and $350K commercial contract mobilizations. Your service contracts are recurring revenue — our lenders actually understand that.
