Who Should Own an HVAC Business in 2025? 


July 31, 2025


If you’re ready to take control of your future and own an HVAC business, you’re in the right place. Whether you’re a seasoned HVAC professional or someone with strong leadership and business skills from another industry, One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning offers a franchise opportunity designed to help you reach your goals.

Why Own an HVAC Business?

The HVAC industry is undergoing rapid transformation, driven by sustainability, smart technologies, and rising consumer demand. In fact, air conditioning alone accounts for 10% of total U.S. energy use, and that demand has steadily increased since 1950.

HVAC is an essential, recession-resistant industry with year-round demand. As homeowners continue to invest in comfort, energy efficiency, and smart home upgrades, the need for reliable heating and cooling services is only growing. Owning an HVAC business allows you to tap into this demand while building a legacy in your local community.

For HVAC Pros: Turn Your Experience into Ownership

If you’ve worked in the HVAC industry as a technician, installer, or in a management role, franchising with One Hour is a natural next step. You already understand the systems, the service standards, and the customer expectations. Now, you can lead a team and grow a business with the backing of a nationally trusted brand.

With One Hour’s established systems, marketing support, and operational tools, you’ll scale faster and more efficiently than going at it alone.

No HVAC Experience? You Can Still Own an HVAC Business

You don’t need to be a technician to succeed in this industry. Many of our franchise owners come from backgrounds like:

  • Business Management: If you’ve led teams, managed operations, or overseen budgets, you already have the foundation to run a service-based business.
  • Customer Service: Experience in hospitality, retail, or healthcare translates directly into building customer loyalty and driving referrals.
  • Sales & Marketing: If you know how to build relationships and grow a brand, you’ll thrive in a business where local visibility and trust are everything.
  • Finance & Operations: Financial literacy is key to profitability. If you can read a P&L, manage cash flow, and make data-driven decisions, you’re ahead of the curve.

Training & Support to Help You Succeed
