Our Family History of Comfort & Care
Hohler Furnace & Sheet Metal traces its history to 1860, when the business began as a sheet metal manufacturer serving an industrial community. In the video, the speaker recounts how his grandfather, Franklin Hollar, joined the original owners and purchased the company in 1929. The family has continued to guide the business through changing customer needs, growing from a team of three employees to 26 employees today.
As heating and air conditioning became more common, the company shifted its focus from sheet metal manufacturing to residential and commercial HVAC installation and service. That history still informs the work, from maintenance inspections that review each part of a system to repair visits that identify the issue and discuss the next steps. The team also values clear communication about the service call and costs before work moves forward.
“We’re always willing to do the little things.”
Those details include arriving in a clean truck, reviewing the service call with the customer, and listening carefully to what homeowners notice about their equipment. The video explains that intermittent sounds, changes in performance, and other observations can give the team useful context when diagnosing a concern. This shared understanding helps create a more informed service experience for homeowners.
“A homeowner that’s aware of their heating and cooling system is actually one of my favorite customers.”
For Hohler Furnace & Sheet Metal, customer relationships remain central to the company’s work and its long history in the community. The team approaches each visit with an appreciation for the people who invite them into their homes and businesses. As the speaker shares in the video, the company’s continued presence depends on the customers it serves.
