HVAC TRUCK STOCK AND INVENTORY LIST

Finally someone did it. This is a comprehensive HVAC truck stock and inventory list for service, installation, and new construction.

This item list was written in MS Word 2007. This document is about sixteen pages with about seven hundred items. The list is in a table and includes an explanation of the various fields. The same item list is also included in a MS Excel 2007 spreadsheet file and a PDF.

The item fields include a category, standardized item number, well written description, and season (explained below). There is also a space for you to enter the price you expect to pay, the stocking quantity, and the department(s) the item belongs to.

Tip: The Department field is not required if you use Total Office Manager® software since the general ledger is fully departmentalized.
