HVAC companies with dead websites: how to find them and what to offer
To find HVAC companies with dead websites, take the website address from each business listing, request it, and keep the ones that fail to load, then check each again on the day you call. As of 12 Nov 2026, 651 of the 10,407 sellable HVAC companies in the 67Leads warehouse that list a website (6%) had a site that did not load when we last checked, and 380 of those have 10 or more reviews.

Shortcut: the HVAC companies with broken websites page lists them by state and city, the website down checker tests one address, and the bulk URL checker tests up to 25 at once. The general method is in how to find dead business websites; this guide applies it to one trade.
Why a dead website hurts an HVAC company in particular
Heating and cooling is bought under pressure. A homeowner whose air conditioner quit in a heat wave searches, opens two or three listings and calls whoever looks reachable. A website that returns an error page costs an HVAC company the visit before the phone rings, and the owner, who is usually out on a call, rarely sees it happen.
HVAC sites also carry things a listing cannot: maintenance plan sign-up, financing information, the brands the company installs and service area boundaries. When the site is dead, those disappear together.
Step 1: Start from the dead-website list
Start from a list that already has the check done. These are the live counts for the trade today:
| Group | Businesses |
|---|---|
| Sellable HVAC companies with a phone | 13,278 |
| Listing names a website | 10,407 |
| Listed website did not load | 651 |
| Website did not load, 10+ reviews | 380 |
| No website on the listing at all | 2,871 |
Each number is the count of listings that match today and it moves as the data refreshes. "Did not load" means the address failed when we checked, which can be a lapsed domain, a hosting problem or a briefly down server.
Step 2: Confirm the site is really dead
Open the address yourself and write down what you see. The website down checker tests one address and the bulk URL checker tests a batch. Common results:
- The domain no longer resolves. The registration probably lapsed.
- A parked or for-sale page. The domain changed hands or expired.
- A hosting-suspended or server error page. The site exists but the host stopped serving it.
- A certificate warning. The site loads but browsers warn visitors away.
- It loads fine. The failure was temporary; drop the name.
Each is a different, specific thing to say to the owner. A name that loads is not a lead.
Step 3: Check the company is still working
Open the map listing. Recent reviews that mention a tune-up, a replacement or a repair in the last couple of months mean the company is trading. A listing with no recent reviews and no recent photos may be closed or may have merged into a bigger company. Search the company name with the word "HVAC" and the city to see whether it moved under another brand. Keep the names with 10 or more reviews first: 380 fit today.
Step 4: Pick the states where the list is deepest
You will get further working one metro than the whole country. These are the states with the most sellable HVAC companies today:
| State | Sellable | Verified email | No website | Owner named |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| California | 2,345 | 2% | 30% | 6% |
| Texas | 1,246 | 2% | 19% | 8% |
| Florida | 796 | 2% | 13% | 8% |
| Arizona | 500 | 3% | 9% | 10% |
| Colorado | 380 | 3% | 21% | 8% |
| North Carolina | 328 | 1% | 16% | 10% |
| Washington | 311 | 3% | 28% | 6% |
| Ohio | 310 | 2% | 19% | 9% |
| Illinois | 285 | 2% | 21% | 7% |
| Virginia | 273 | 3% | 31% | 9% |
States with 50+ sellable businesses, largest first, live from the 67Leads warehouse.
Pick one state, open its page from the table or from the HVAC companies with broken websites page, and take the cities with the most listings first. Where seasons are sharp, plan your calls for the shoulder weeks in spring and autumn, when crews have gaps between the cooling and heating rushes.
Step 5: Pitch the fix, with an HVAC-shaped page
Tell the owner what a visitor sees, in one sentence, and offer to bring the site back. For HVAC a restored page should have:
- A tap-to-call number and a line saying whether emergency or after-hours calls are taken.
- The services, split into repair, replacement and maintenance.
- A maintenance plan page if the company offers one.
- The service area as a list of towns, since people search by town.
- Licence and insurance details and the reviews already on the listing.
Offer one package with a price, what is included and a delivery date in writing. The guide to pitching a business whose website is down has the wording and the order of the conversation, and the cold call script for web designers has openers and objection replies. If you are unsure what to charge, read how to price your first local business website.
Before calling or texting, read the rules for your state and the National Do Not Call Registry at donotcall.gov, and keep a list of anyone who asks you to stop. This is general information, not legal advice.
What to leave out
- Names where the site loads when you check. Do not tell an owner their site is down if it is not.
- Companies that clearly rebranded or merged. Search the phone number before you call.
- Any claim about the revenue the dead site cost them. You cannot know that.
- Any promise about where the new site will rank.

Questions
How many HVAC companies have a dead website?
As of 12 Nov 2026, 651 of the 10,407 sellable HVAC companies in our warehouse that list a website had one that did not load when we last checked. That counts the listings we hold, not every HVAC company in the country.
Does a site that did not load mean the company is closed?
No. The business may be trading with a lapsed domain or a host problem. Check recent reviews and recheck the address before you call.
Should I call during the summer or winter rush?
Owners are hardest to reach in the peak weeks of each season. Try early morning, or the quieter weeks in between, and keep the call short.
Should I pitch a rebuild or just a fix?
Say what you saw. If the domain lapsed, offer to restore or replace it; if the host stopped serving it, offer to move it. Quote one fixed price for the option you recommend.
