John Donne’s famous quote reminds us that, “No man is an Island, entire of itself;” in other words, we all live as a part of a whole. This saying rings particularly true in business: Strategic alliances and partnerships help businesses offer more services, and make those services available to a wider range of customers. HVAC contractors foster many partnerships and alliances to expand their service offerings to customers, and to increase their access to information, regulations, policy and techniques that maintain and increase their expertise.

Trade and professional organizations such as ASHRAE, the Qualified Gas Contractors Association and The Air Conditioning Contractors Association of Hampton Road keep contractors performing to the highest levels of expertise. Partnerships ensure that HVAC cleaning and maintenance are performed to National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) standards and guidelines. Training and updates from associations keep personnel up-to-date and capable well beyond the traditional basic certifications offered. HVAC contractors that join partnerships subscribe to a code of ethics and commit to a level of excellence that assures the customer the best in products and services. Expertise is a result of experience, knowledge and training. No individual person could possibly possess limitless amounts of all three. Partnerships keep your HVAC contractor connected within a network of professionals that share information; hold one another accountable; keep standards in line with local, state and federal policy and regulation; and finally, promote efficiency and savings for the customer. When you are looking for an HVAC contractor, look for one who is committed to providing reliable service, believes in continuing education and is involved in your community.

    Pamela F., Chesapeake, VA
  • Every moment from the time an appointment was set up until the day the work was completed was a pleasure. Every employee was a delight to work with. The proof that the product was great came when the electric bills started coming in the airconditioning season.

    Douglas P., VA Beach

    Pastor Larry E. O'Brien, Churchland Assembly of God
  • A year ago, I contracted with Russell's to tune up and clean the heating and cooling system. How impressively your specialist cleaned my system...he also found a defective automatic (programmable) thermostat. Quite quickly, he replaced my automatic thermostat. The results?

    R. Snider, Norfolk, VA
