The industry has a private equity problem.
Over the last decade, Wall Street has quietly bought up thousands of local HVAC companies. They keep the old family name on the trucks, but replace the experienced technicians with salesmen on commission.
The result? Aggressive upselling, rushed installations, and a complete loss of craftsmanship. We built this platform to protect Colorado homeowners from the corporatization of the trades.
The Corporate Model
Technicians pushed to hit sales quotas, high employee turnover, rushed ductwork.
The Craft Model
Owner-operators who take pride in load calculations, clean installs, and long-term relationships.
How we find your perfect match.
We do the vetting so you don't have to. Our process filters out the noise and connects you with true professionals.
1. Tell us your needs
Fill out our brief intake form. Whether it's a historic home retrofit or a modern heat pump upgrade, we need to know the scope.
2. We check the database
We check each contractor against our Colorado ownership database, built from corporate filings, PE portfolio pages, and community tips, to confirm they're genuinely independent.
3. Introduction made
We personally introduce you to 1-2 thoroughly vetted contractors who specialize in exactly what your home needs.
Why it matters to get this right.
"The technician spent two hours looking at our house before quoting anything. I later found out the company is owner-operated. That kind of honesty has never happened with a larger company."
"I thought I was calling a local family shop. Turns out they'd been sold to private equity two years before. WhoOwnsYourHVAC.org told me in about thirty seconds."
"Our contractor did a proper Manual J load calculation before recommending any equipment. He said most companies skip that step. Nobody had ever done it for us before, and we've had three systems."
