Women Entrepreneurs are taking over HVAC


June 27, 2022


No matter what stage of career you are in, women are standing out in every single industry even those that are usually male-dominated. The World Bank reports that women only make 38 percent of global human capital wealth versus 62 percent for men. Yet, women are now accounting for every 1 in 3 franchises that are opening. Women are essentially heating up the HVAC industry at an alarming rate.

The HVAC industry is a $57.8 Billion industry alone, yet only 9% of technicians are women. One Hour Heating &Air Conditioning wants to change that statistic. We are a part of the Diversity Fran Program that gives $5,000 off the initial franchise fee to any woman that wants to own our franchise.

About 7% of women who are in HVAC are company owners, One Hour wants to change that. We help provide tools that help women succeed such as:

Business plan and Support:

All owners receive support and training before opening their doors and during. This includes:

  • Business management and technical training that are award winning
  • Integrated system software and technology
  • Local and national marketing support
  • One Hour protection plans

By helping build your skills as owners, it helps bring more success to you and your One Hour Business
