The fictional project is set in Hamilton, Ontario. Cedar & Beam Builders and Jordan Taylor are example names, not a contractor and client case study. The matching guide (https://quicklyestimates.com/en-ca/guides/how-to-estimate-central-heat-pump-installation/) explains how measurement, product selection and site conditions affect the estimate. Location Hamilton, Ontario Prepared by Cedar & Beam Builders · fictional business Prepared for Jordan Taylor · fictional client Issued / valid through September 25 / October 25, 2026 The 7 CAD cost lines The table uses the exact items, quantities and unit rates in the app-exported PDF. Multiply each quantity by its rate to check the amount. These chosen figures demonstrate the document; they are not surveyed prices or suggested rates for Hamilton, Ontario. Central heat pump installation example · CAD Work item | Quantity | Unit rate | Amount | Load and site assessment allowance | 1 job | C$610.00 | C$610.00 | Outdoor unit allowance | 1 each | C$5,565.00 | C$5,565.00 | Indoor unit allowance | 1 each | C$3,845.00 | C$3,845.00 | Line and fitting allowance | 1 job | C$1,125.00 | C$1,125.00 | Equipment installation labour | 32 hours | C$150.00 | C$4,800.00 | Controls and electrical connection allowance | 1 job | C$1,725.00 | C$1,725.00 | Commissioning and handoff | 1 job | C$915.00 | C$915.00 | Illustrative subtotal | C$18,585.00 | Check the arithmetic - Outdoor unit allowance: 1 each × C$5,565.00 = C$5,565.00. - Indoor unit allowance: 1 each × C$3,845.00 = C$3,845.00. The rounded line amounts add to C$18,585.00 . The PDF's tax field is 0%, so its illustrated total stays C$18,585.00 before any markup. The sample shows 0% tax only to make the arithmetic visible. Determine any applicable GST, HST or PST and markup for the actual work before sharing a quote. Measurement to verify: Record conditioned zones, equipment locations, distribution condition, line route and power requirements. Product decision: Keep equipment, controls, connection materials and commissioning separate. Count the actual units, site visits and selected products separately. A count in this example is a document input, not a substitute for inspecting the real property. Assumptions and exclusions A qualified designer must size the system; coordinate electrical and mechanical handoffs before installation. Outside this example: No whole-building insulation retrofit, duct replacement or service upgrade. Inadequate distribution or supply capacity changes the equipment and ancillary scope. Inspect the existing substrate, access and product selections at the property. Check any local trade or municipal requirements that apply and record unresolved conditions before preparing the final client document. Confirm a change and update the estimate before adding work that was not in the base scope. Download the actual app PDF The PDF was exported from Estimates for this fictional Canadian job. It carries a concise version of the project scope, plus the same customer, cost lines, CAD amounts and total used here. Its note covers the fictional tax setting and the brief's full exclusion sentence; the article records additional assumptions that do not fit in that PDF note.
