Starting point

How Sanitär & SHK document today – and what it costs

The service department of a plumbing and heating company lives on maintenance contracts. Every maintenance produces a protocol: flue gas measurement, burner values, refrigerant pressure of the heat pump, drinking water sampling, pressure test after installation, fault repair. Today this sits on maintenance sheets in the van, is retyped in the office at night and sent to the customer with the invoice — days after the visit.

That costs in three places: the technician writes twice. The office retypes, searches the chat for photos and finds that the meter reading or serial number is missing — call back to the technician, sometimes a return trip. And the next maintenance date is somewhere in a calendar, but not attached to the system; when it is forgotten, the customer calls the competitor.

For the owner this means: they cannot say which maintenance jobs are due this month, how many protocols are still in the office and whether, after a water damage, the proof of the pressure test is complete. ProtocolHero documents maintenance completely on the first visit — and the invoice goes out the same day.

Who ProtocolHero is built for

  • Plumbing and heating companies with technicians in the field and a service department with maintenance contracts
  • Heating contractors that maintain and commission heat pumps, gas and oil systems
  • Plumbing and installation companies with drinking water, pressure and leak tests
  • Building-services companies working for housing associations and commercial properties

What it means for your business

Four things that change for management

Not more forms, but less rework, less risk and a business you can show at any time.

Time

Maintenance complete on the first visit, invoice the same day

The maintenance template has required fields for meter reading, serial number, readings and customer signature. The technician cannot submit before everything is there. The protocol goes to the customer as a link, the office invoices from the approved submission — no call back, no return trip.

Control

Every system knows its next date

System, customer, maintenance contract and interval live in the database. The document hub shows per technician what is due, in progress or approved. The Hero Agent posts the month's due dates to your channel so the service team plans the route instead of reacting.

Fewer errors

Previous values next to the current ones

Flue gas values, system pressure, refrigerant data from the last maintenance sit right next to the new field. Deviations show up at the boiler, not weeks later. The Hero Agent reads photos of the type plate — the technician photographs instead of copying serial numbers.

Proof

Pressure test and drinking water proven with timestamp

Approved PDF with signature, photos and activity log: who tested when, who approved. In a water damage case or a complaint from the housing association you deliver the proof via link — instead of searching binders.

Das Problem

Schluss mit Word, Excel und Zettelwirtschaft

Diese typischen Hürden kennen Betriebe in Ihrem Gewerk – und genau hier setzt ProtocolHero an.

Wartungsprotokolle für Heizungen werden auf Papier ausgefüllt und müssen im Büro erneut in Word erfasst werden.

Dichtheitsprüfungen und Druckprotokolle landen als Foto im WhatsApp-Chat und sind später nicht mehr auffindbar.

Anlagendaten, Zählerstände und Bauteile sind über Ordner und Excel-Tabellen verstreut.

Bei der nächsten Wartung fehlt der Verlauf der letzten Einsätze und Messwerte.

Anlagen & Kunden als Datenbank

Heizungen, Anlagen und Kunden strukturiert hinterlegen und den Verlauf vergangener Einsätze immer griffbereit haben.

PDF-Übergabe mit Unterschrift

Protokolle vom Kunden vor Ort unterschreiben lassen und sofort als PDF mit Ihrem Logo übergeben oder per Link teilen.

How it runs in your business

From template to proof

One continuous process instead of isolated tools – identical for every team, with clear ownership per step.

  1. 1

    Create maintenance and test templates

    Heating maintenance, heat pump maintenance, drinking water sampling, pressure and leak test, fault report — central templates with required fields and measurement tables.

  2. 2

    Systems and contracts in the database

    Customer, system, manufacturer, year, maintenance interval, contract scope. Every protocol attaches to the system and knows the previous values.

  3. 3

    Technician documents at the boiler — offline too

    Readings, photos, meter reading on the smartphone; work continues in the boiler room without signal. The customer signs on the device.

  4. 4

    Faults arrive structured

    Customers report via web form or email to your channel. The Hero Agent creates the card with system, owner and deadline — no note taken by phone.

  5. 5

    Approval and invoicing

    The service manager reviews and approves; the customer receives link and PDF. The office invoices from the approved submission, the same day.

  6. 6

    Next maintenance date

    The interval sits on the system, the Hero Agent reminds. At the next maintenance the previous values are ready.

Why it pays off

What a maintenance protocol really costs today

A plumbing and heating company with six service technicians easily runs 250 maintenance visits a month in the heating season. If each costs 20 minutes for retyping, assigning photos and filing, that is roughly 85 hours of office work a month — and every missing meter reading adds a call back or a return trip.

With ProtocolHero the protocol is complete before the technician leaves the boiler room, and the invoice goes out the same day instead of after two weeks. More expensive than the office hours is what does not happen: a maintenance contract taken over by the competitor because the date was forgotten, or a water damage case in which the pressure test is not documented.

  • Required fields for meter reading, serial number and signature — no call backs, no return trips
  • Invoice from the approved submission on the day of maintenance
  • Due dates per system secure maintenance contracts and route planning
  • Proof for pressure test and drinking water via link instead of a binder search

Real customers, real statements

Our references come from electrical and energy-technology companies; Twietmeyer Energietechnik also uses ProtocolHero for heat pumps. The mechanism is the same: document maintenance on site, know the previous values, approve, invoice.

„The first time I heard about ProtocolHero, I was excited about the vision from the very first minute – and today I'm proud that I got the product right away, as ProtocolHero's very first customer. I'm convinced that a product can only grow when we as businesses support one another – that's the only way to truly reduce the time our own customers have to spend. In the beginning a lot was new to me, but Steven, the managing director, always advised me kindly and responded to my own wishes right away. That's why we'll also be using ProtocolHero for our photovoltaic systems, heat pumps and other areas going forward. Many thanks to the whole team – and here's to a great future together!“
