FAQ

How does IRCODE technology verify HVAC service completion?

IRCODE uses visual recognition to match a technician's phone camera image of an HVAC unit's front panel to its asset record and work order. The app instantly confirms the correct asset and location, then requires documented completion steps—photos, checklists, and attestation—before payment release and work-order closeout.

What proof of service does IRCODE provide for facilities managers?

IRCODE generates a complete audit trail including before and after photos, timestamped location data, completed safety and service checklists, part numbers, technician signatures, and automatic work-order status updates. This verified evidence package replaces unverified contractor claims and appears on the operations dashboard.

Why do facilities teams need verified proof of HVAC maintenance?

Facilities managers oversee hundreds of maintenance tickets and require documented evidence that work was actually performed at the correct asset, not just a contractor's word. Verified proof ensures accountability, prevents duplicate billing, and creates a defensible audit trail for compliance and payment authorization.

What steps must a technician complete before closing an HVAC work order in IRCODE?

The technician must capture a before photo, complete a safety checklist, perform the required service (e.g., belt replacement, filter inspection, refrigerant check), take an after photo with visual verification, enter part numbers, and sign a completion attestation. Only then does the app close the work order and release payment.

How does IRCODE prevent technicians from servicing the wrong HVAC unit?

When a technician points their phone camera at an HVAC unit's front panel, IRCODE's visual recognition instantly matches it to the asset ID and assigned work order. A green status indicator confirms the correct asset and location before any work begins, preventing misdirected service.

A technician arrives to service a rooftop unit flagged for maintenance. Facilities teams face hundreds of open tickets, and need verified proof of service, not just a completion claim. First, point the app camera at the unit's front panel. I-R CODE matches the asset to its work order, and requires documented completion before payment is released. Next, the belt is replaced and filters inspected, each step logged. Finally, verified evidence closes the work order and updates the operations dashboard automatically, with a full audit trail.
