What is the HVAC customer financing widget?
The HVAC financing widget is a small “See monthly payments” button that you add to your website. When customers click, they can check HVAC financing options for their project — without leaving your site.
BuildFolio uses a financing marketplace powered by Fiona that shows offers from multiple providers. Customers see estimated monthly payments, then come back to you ready to book the install.
- Works for AC replacement financing, furnace financing, heat pump projects, and full system change-outs.
- Soft credit check — customers can compare offers with less friction.
- You get a BuildFolio dashboard showing financing clicks and qualified leads.
BuildFolio is not a lender. Financing offers are provided by third-party partners through Fiona; terms, rates, and approvals come from those providers.
How the HVAC financing widget works on your website
From your side, setup is simple. From the homeowner’s side, it’s a clean, self-serve way to explore HVAC financing without awkward money conversations.
- Paste the BuildFolio widget snippet anywhere on your HVAC website (WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, or custom HTML).
- Customers click “See HVAC financing options” and answer a few basic questions about their project.
- Marketplace partners (via Fiona) run a soft inquiry and show available HVAC financing offers.
- You see each click and successful application in your BuildFolio dashboard and can follow up to schedule the install.
Why HVAC contractors use BuildFolio for financing
Close more installs at higher tickets
Giving homeowners clear HVAC financing options makes it easier to say “yes” to full system replacements instead of patchwork repairs.
Reduce price objections
Instead of discounting, you can point customers to monthly payments that fit their budget — especially for surprise AC or furnace failures.
No extra software to learn
Just paste the widget. BuildFolio handles the front-end and tracking; your crew keeps using the tools they already know.
Many HVAC businesses pair the financing widget with the BuildFolio lead capture widget so photos, scope details, and financing interest all show up in the same dashboard.
Best places to add your HVAC financing button
To rank for long-tail searches like “AC replacement financing” and “furnace financing near me”, and to convert more visits into leads, we recommend:
- AC replacement and new install pages — add the HVAC financing widget near your primary “Request estimate” CTA.
- Furnace, boiler, and heat pump pages — highlight “See monthly payments” above the fold.
- Financing / promotions page — include HVAC financing keywords such as “HVAC financing options”, “AC replacement financing”, and “furnace financing”.
- Quote and confirmation emails — link back to your financing page so customers can review options before you arrive.
These placements help both SEO and conversion rate, especially during peak season when customers are shopping quickly.
HVAC financing widget FAQs
Is the HVAC financing widget really free?
Yes. The financing widget is included on the BuildFolio Free plan. You can add it to your HVAC website, track clicks and leads, and only upgrade when you want automation like SMS follow-ups and AI quoting.
Does the HVAC financing widget affect my customer’s credit score?
The marketplace partners run a soft inquiry to show potential offers. Final approvals and any hard pulls are handled by providers in the Fiona marketplace, not by BuildFolio. Customers should always review each lender’s terms before accepting an offer.
Can I customize the HVAC financing button text?
Yes. Common choices are “See HVAC financing options”, “See AC replacement financing”, or “See monthly payments”. You can change labels from your BuildFolio settings without touching code.
Does BuildFolio replace my existing HVAC CRM or field software?
No. BuildFolio focuses on lead capture, financing, quoting, and automation. Many HVAC contractors use the financing widget on their website and continue managing jobs in their existing CRM or field service platform.
Where can I learn more about the financing marketplace?
Financing offers are powered by Fiona’s marketplace. For the latest information about lenders and eligibility, see fiona.com.
