We Asked Our Team Why

Who better to describe who we are than to ask our team why we do what we do. Below are some of our Why’s…

To help them solve problems, educate them on the latest technologies available, and provide the best product at the lowest cost with technical support.

– Dave

To be the best and do it with integrity. A company our owner [customers] can trust to do the right thing.

– Rory

To build a reputation as a firm that people respect and is a pleasure to do business with. To be a want instead of a need.

– Chris

With Nelson & Company, you can be confident that you have an ally, a partner in the industry. It’s about more than just HVAC. It’s about the reliability that you deserve.

– Doug

To change how the industry works and help the industry better the community. We get in there and get our hands dirty to solve problems because we have a genuine desire to step in and help. We’re building relationships in tandem with building our own reputation for dependability.

– Nicole

We don’t just care about our customers; we enjoy working with them. That’s how we are able to provide such dependable availability.

-Ryan O

We want to stay nimble. We reserve the right to shape our company to better serve our customers. The customer should decide the destination and we should help them get there.

– Ryan M

We love air conditioning. We spend the majority of our lives indoors and believe the air we breathe should be the highest quality. We believe every building owner should have the best air available for the occupants.

– Wil

{{ brizy_dc_image_alt uid='wp-751de53a3a7aeb116b2c8720d41205fc' }}

Our goal has always been to be the best. We’ve grown but our egos haven’t.
