What we did

Our dashboard records two kinds of ongoing Google Business Profile work for this account:

• 79 Google posts published through the Local Howl dashboard between April 1 and August 10, 2026. This counts only posts our system matched to drafts we published, so it is a floor, not a total.
• 25 review replies published between March 2 and August 31, 2026.

The results, keyword by keyword

Every row below compares two Local Falcon scans with the same keyword, the same 9×9 grid of 81 points, the same 10-mile radius and the same center point. Only the dates differ.

Energy audits: the clearest change

On March 5, 2026 the business appeared in the top 20 at 20 of 81 points for “energy audit near me”. By August 31, 2026 it appeared at 60. Top-three coverage rose from 13 points to 22 (16.05% to 27.16%). The average rank across the points where it appeared went from 3.30 to 5.75; that number looks worse only because it now averages three times as many points, many of them farther away.

A wider scan tells the same story. On a 15×15 grid with a 15-mile radius (225 points), the business was not in the top 20 at any point on February 6, 2026. On July 15, 2026 it appeared at 53 of 225 points, with a 7.11% top-three share.

Indoor air quality testing: a smaller gain

For “indoor air quality testing near me”, the business appeared at 55 points on March 5, 2026 and 67 points on September 26, 2026, and moved from zero top-three points to two. A single July 15 scan showed 13.58% top-three share, but the next scans fell back to 1.23% and 2.47%, so we do not count that peak.

What did not improve

The broad searches most homeowners type were flat or slightly worse over the same months:

• ac repair near me: top-three share fell from 3.70% to 1.23%, and ATRP slipped from 17.84 to 18.64.
• hvac near me: top-three share held at 7.41%; ATRP moved from 15.98 to 16.31.
• heating and cooling near me: top-three share rose from 6.17% to 7.41% (one point), while ATRP slipped from 14.74 to 15.77.

Google profile activity did not grow either. Comparing March to September 2026 with March to September 2025, Google reported 3,057 profile views against 3,163 (down 3.4%), 103 calls against 123, and 170 website clicks against 177. Source: Google Business Profile performance data in our dashboard.

The honest summary: Kjelshus gained ground on its specialty services, energy audits most of all, and has not yet gained on the competitive “near me” HVAC searches.

Measurement notes

How to read these numbers. Local Falcon checks Google Maps from a grid of points around a fixed center and records where the business ranks at each point. ATRP (average total rank) averages every point and counts a point where the business is not in the top 20 as 21, so lower is better. SoLV (share of local voice) is the share of points where the business is in the top three. A single scan moves around: repeat scans of the same keyword on the same day can differ by a point or two, so we read the whole series, not just two dates.

The energy audit comparison ends on August 31, 2026; we left out a later reading because we could not confirm it in Local Falcon. Rankings also depend on where the searcher stands, on competitors and on Google, not only on the work we do.
