This well-established, long tenured, and highly reputable HVAC company is now available for acquisition due to the pending retirement of the owner, presenting buyers with a golden opportunity to build their legacy in the Aloha State.
This company services commercial, governmental, and residential customers with focuses on: HVAC sales, service and installation, duct fabrication, ductless A/C services, heater repair and installation, A/C and duct repair, architectural sheet metal fabrication and installation.

The fundamental drivers for their work include Hawaii’s general economy and population growth, contractor work (primary commercial, residential and government), and (indirectly) the health of the Hawaii visitor economy, which is one of the largest individual segments of the Hawaii economy.
