Dabe
HVAC Dispatch Software

Give dispatch the context they need before the callback

Dabe is not a route board. It is the website intake layer that captures urgency, issue type, system status, preferred timing, and estimate context before your office team calls back.

The Callback Problem

Dispatch loses time when every online lead starts as a vague note

A message like 'AC not working' forces the office team to call back, identify urgency, ask basic diagnostic questions, confirm timing, and reset the customer's expectations from scratch.

Dabe captures dispatch context before that call. The request can show issue type, urgency, system status, estimate context, and whether the homeowner wants service, replacement, maintenance, or a booked visit.

Dispatch-Ready Intake

Structure every website request around the dispatch decision

The dispatch decision is not just who called. It is what happened, how urgent it is, what the customer already saw, and what the next action should be.

1

Ask the questions dispatch repeats every day

Capture symptom, urgency, system type, equipment status, home context, and preferred callback or appointment timing.

2

Separate the reason for the request

Repair, replacement, maintenance, and booking flows keep customer intent from getting flattened into one contact form.

3

Attach what the customer already saw

If the homeowner viewed a repair range, selected a package, or requested financing context, that information stays with the request.

4

Start follow-up from a prioritized queue

Office staff can prioritize urgent service, route sales opportunities, and respond with better notes before a job is formally scheduled.

Dispatch Checklist

What a dispatch-ready HVAC website lead should contain

Use these fields to reduce basic discovery calls and help the office team decide priority, owner, and next step faster.

Step 1

Priority signals

Make urgent jobs visible before the office team starts working the queue.

  • No cooling, no heat, active leak, safety concern, or system down
  • Customer availability and same-day preference
  • Homeowner notes that change urgency or routing
Step 2

Pre-call context

Give dispatch the information usually collected in the first two minutes of a callback.

  • Issue type, symptoms, system age, and recent service history
  • Repair, replacement, maintenance, or appointment intent
  • Photos, notes, or answers from the guided flow
Step 3

Estimate expectation

Keep pricing context visible so callbacks do not restart the conversation.

  • Repair range viewed by the homeowner
  • Replacement package or quote path selected
  • Financing, rebate, or budget expectation
Step 4

Scheduling handoff

Turn a form submission into a request that can move toward a booked visit.

  • Preferred callback or appointment window
  • Recommended owner: dispatch, sales, or service manager
  • Summary ready for CRM or booking workflow
Before and After

Turn website messages into dispatch-ready lead context

Dabe reduces the basic discovery work that happens after a generic website submission.

VAGUE FORM

  • Customer writes a short message.
  • Dispatcher calls back for urgency and issue type.
  • Estimate expectations are unknown.
  • Replacement interest is easy to miss.

DABE INTAKE

  • Customer follows a guided service path.
  • Urgency and issue details are captured.
  • Estimate range or package context is attached.
  • Follow-up starts with a clearer next step.
Dispatch Intake

The website intake layer dispatch teams wish every lead had

Dabe makes HVAC callbacks, booking, and handoff work easier by improving the first request.

Urgency

Identify no-cooling, leak, and safety issues earlier

The flow can ask urgency and symptom questions before the customer submits, helping the office understand which requests need faster attention.
