Time to Be Thankful Wow! What a year. A2Ls, R32, 454B, refrigerant shortages, skyrocketing pricing, labor shortages … Sometimes its up, sometimes it down, sometimes we’re just looking round--trying to figure out what, when, where, and why. But, most have survived and done well this summer and are now taking a bit of a breather. On the other hand, some tell me they are booked out several weeks to a few months. Our industry has experienced an inordinate amount of shock in 2025 and it is awesome that we have come through as well as we have. Yes, that is our shock and awe. We have good reason to have lots of complaints, worries, frustrations and negativity; however, we don’t need to have created a department to internalize it as though we accept it to stay around. Let’s be thankful for all our blessings. Yes, blessings. Surely, you have seen some providence in your survival and success. We have much to be thankful for. Let’s list a few: First, for the God that loves you and is always there to hear your prayer. Second, for the family that loves you and understands how hard you work. Let’s Close it for Thanksgiving.

Third, for the greatest country that has ever existed. There may be lots of craziness these days, but America still tops them all. Fourth, for our employees and co workers. In fact, they are the ones we spend most of our time with and the ones that spend their lives making our companies successful. Thank you to all four.
