Free for homeowners

Put the repair decision on paper.

Start with two actual amounts, then check the scope, coverage and questions behind them. A clear worksheet can help you have a more useful conversation before authorizing work.

Work with your actual quotes

What would each option cost you?

Enter the amounts you would pay today. Include installation, taxes, disposal and any deductible when known. The worksheet compares upfront costs; your technician and the written terms help answer the rest.

Enter two valid amounts to compare. Zero is allowed.

Your take-away plan

Your entries stay in this page until you leave or clear them. Copy or download your plan before navigating.

Age and past repairs provide context. They do not establish remaining life. This worksheet does not estimate energy savings, determine coverage or choose an option for you.

Compare the amount you would pay

Use written estimates for the same item and the work you need. Include installation, taxes, disposal and any deductible when known. Keep an unknown cost as unknown rather than filling it with a guess.

Ask what the repair will resolve

Have the company explain the proposed repair, its limits, parts availability and the written warranty. Ask what remains uncertain. The age of equipment and previous repairs are useful context, but do not establish how long it will last.

Keep the decision with the record

Copy or download the worksheet before leaving this page. After the work, keep the actual invoice and warranty information in your home records. A proposed estimate and a completed repair are different records.

Before you get started

Does this recommend repair or replacement?

No. It compares the upfront amounts you enter and collects questions. It does not diagnose equipment or calculate remaining life, future savings or a local market price.

Does entering a warranty date confirm coverage?

No. Check the actual terms, exclusions, deductible and required authorization with your provider. Enter the amount you would actually pay only after confirming the details.
