What not to ask the customer to decide

Do not make the form determine:

Those belong in qualified service and engineering review.

• root cause;
• final compressor size;
• exact dryer selection;
• piping diameter;
• pressure drop;
• air-quality class;
• preventive-maintenance interval;

Should the form show an instant price?

Usually not.

A real quote can depend on:

Use a reviewed quote.

• compressor type;
• parts;
• travel;

• dryer/filtration;
• piping;
• shutdown constraints.

Should the form dispatch a technician automatically?

Only when the company's real operating system can safely do that.

Otherwise:

request received → service review → accepted job → technician assignment

is safer.

Confirmation message

Use:

Thanks. We received your compressed-air request. Our team will review the facility, equipment, service need and timing and contact you about the next step.

Avoid:

A technician is on the way.

until that is true.
