How we price this in Switzerland

Swiss national base ranges come from named Swiss cost-guide, trade and parts sources for heating, ventilation and cooling — never FX-converted from another currency. We localize them with cantonal wage relatives from the Federal Statistical Office's Swiss Earnings Structure Survey (there is no Swiss equivalent of the U.S. Regional Price Parity, and no Switzerland-wide occupation-specific wage table for the HVAC and heating trades, so the general cantonal wage relative stands in as the local labour-cost proxy). VAT is 8.1% nationwide (the standard rate since 1 January 2024), but many small firms fall under the CHF 100,000 turnover threshold and are not VAT-registered — so treat 8.1% as a ceiling. Refrigerant-circuit work requires a refrigerant-handling permit (Fachbewilligung, ChemRRV) and gas work an SVGW-certified installer, which is why heat-pump, cooling and gas repairs carry higher labour shares. Prices are in Swiss francs. The full formula, weights, clamp, and source vintages are on the methodology page.
