Furnace Direct started in Minnesota with two people. Jeren Hamlin built Airtek Heating & Cooling from nothing and sold it. Andrew Chiappetta builds the systems, the sites, and the tools. We put the two together to sell HVAC the way it should have been sold all along: factory-direct, priced straight, installed by crews we pay the same day.
Now we are in Minnesota, Florida, North Carolina, and Missouri, and we are obsessed with building the next HVAC company. Obsessed with every install being right. Obsessed with giving the homeowner a straight answer. Obsessed with being the best.
If this sounds like you, hit apply and let's talk.
See Open RolesPerformance-based compensation built to pay $100,000+.
Every dollar over the base arrives with a sold job attached to it. There is no ceiling, there is no discretionary bonus, and there is no committee deciding what you deserve at the end of the year. You close more, you make more, and the rate itself climbs as you climb. That is what makes this a hunter's comp plan instead of a salary with a tip jar.
$13,000 a year, paid weekly, whether you close anything or not. This is a floor, not a salary. It is deliberately small because the money in this job is on the other side of the sale.
| Installs closed & paid in the month | Rate per install |
|---|---|
| 1 – 15 | $100 |
| 16 – 30 | $150 |
| 31 and up | $200 |
Retroactive within the month. Hit sixteen and every install that month pays $150, not just the sixteenth. Hit thirty-one and all of them pay $200. On the 27th of the month, sitting on twenty-nine closes, that thirtieth and thirty-first job are worth an extra $1,550 to you.
Full tier rate applies to any job clearing $600 or more in gross profit. Jobs that close under $600 pay a flat $75 regardless of tier and do not count toward tier advancement.
Assuming 21 working days a month and the tier structure above:
| Closes per day | Per month | Monthly commission | Annual earnings |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.5 | 11 | $1,100 | $26,200 |
| 1 | 21 | $3,150 | $50,800 |
| 2 | 42 | $8,400 | $113,800 |
| 3 | 63 | $12,600 | $164,200 |
| 4 | 84 | $16,800 | $214,600 |
| 5 | 105 | $21,000 | $265,000 |
Two a day is $113,800. Four a day is over $200,000.
You run the paid social, Marketplace, and the site. You are generating your own leads and closing them, which is why the comp can be this aggressive: you control both sides of your own number.
This is a W-2 employee position. Base pay is $250 per week. Commission figures are illustrative examples based on the tier rates above, the stated number of closes per day, and 21 working days a month. They are gross earnings before taxes and are not a guarantee of lead volume, close rate, or earnings. A close is a customer who has paid with an install scheduled. Commission is paid on cleared payment and is clawed back on cancellation or refund. Gross profit per job is calculated on a written formula provided in the offer letter.
