A Journey of Growth and Dedication

Richard’s AC Company has been a trusted name in heating and cooling services for decades, serving the communities of Clarksburg, Bridgeport, Buckhannon, Jane Lew, and Fairmont, West Virginia. Our story begins with a passion for providing comfort and reliability to local homes and businesses.

The Early Days

Founded in 1978 by Richard Thompson, our company started as a small, one-man operation. Richard’s dedication to quality workmanship and customer satisfaction quickly earned him a reputation as the go-to HVAC specialist in the area. As demand grew, so did the business, and Richard began hiring skilled technicians to join his team.

Expanding Our Reach

Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Richard’s AC Company experienced steady growth, expanding our service area to include:

• Clarksburg
• Bridgeport
• Buckhannon
• Jane Lew
• Fairmont

This expansion allowed us to bring our expertise in air conditioning repair and heating services to a wider range of customers across West Virginia.

Embracing Innovation

As technology in the HVAC industry advanced, Richard’s AC Company remained at the forefront of these changes. We invested in ongoing training for our technicians and adopted new, energy-efficient systems to better serve our clients. This commitment to innovation has helped us maintain our position as a leader in the field.

A Family Legacy

In 2005, Richard’s son, Michael Thompson, joined the company, bringing fresh ideas and a new perspective to the business. Together, father and son worked to modernize operations and expand the company’s service offerings, including the addition of comprehensive heating repair services.

Our Commitment to Community

Throughout our history, Richard’s AC Company has remained deeply rooted in the communities we serve. We’ve sponsored local sports teams, participated in charity events, and provided pro bono services to those in need. This commitment to giving back has strengthened our bonds with the people we serve.

Looking to the Future

Today, Richard’s AC Company continues to thrive under the leadership of the Thompson family. We’ve grown from a small, local operation to a respected regional provider of HVAC services, but our core values remain the same: quality workmanship, customer satisfaction, and a dedication to keeping West Virginia homes and businesses comfortable year-round.

As we look to the future, we’re excited to continue serving our community with the same passion and expertise that has defined Richard’s AC Company for over four decades.
