HVAC Installation Insurance

HVAC installation contractors work in a high-risk environment on a daily basis where they can either sustain an injury from an accident or can accidentally damage the client’s property.

Whatever the case may be, accidents do happen, and to avoid any legal and financial complications, it’s always a good idea to take out comprehensive HVAC installation insurance.

HVAC installation contractors are exposed to many risks while working on the installation of an HVAC system for their customers. HVAC Contractors can be sued by their clients for property damage, injured while working on the rooftop of a house, fined for any environmental damages they might cause, and more.

Because of these risks, it is important for HVAC Installation Contractors to have Insurance coverage.

In other cases, HVAC installation insurance can simply be a legal requirement imposed by your local state, which without, you cannot legally operate.

HVAC installation contractors need several insurance policies to provide adequate protection for themselves, their employees, and their customers. The type of policies you need to take out will depend on the size of your business, the number of company cars your business owns, the number of staff your business employs, the state you’re in, and more.

For more information on the different policies we recommend for your industry, please take a look below.

Generally speaking, the average cost of a general liability policy is $750 per year. For worker's compensation insurance, you can expect to pay between $1,000 and $4,000.

As for commercial auto insurance, the cost of the policy can range between $1,000 and $2,000.
