Ellsworth's Heating & Cooling Information

Ellsworth's Heating & Cooling was founded in Lee County 45 years ago, making it one of the oldest and most reliable air conditioning companies in the tri-county area. Started as a one-man operation in 1968 by George Ellsworth Sr., with only a station wagon and the instinct to treat his customers the way he wanted to be treated--fairly and honestly, the company rapidly became highly trusted for its exceptional personal service and solid dependability. George Sr. credits a large part of his company's success for nearly a half century to a very simple, but powerful company-wide philosophy: "We always try, above all, to be honest and reputable and make every possible effort to put the customer first." Employees are instructed to treat their customer as a family member - like they would treat their own parent, grandparent or any other family member--great service at a very fair price." Nowadays, George Sr. has placed the day-to-day operations of the business in the very capable hands of his son-in-law, William Barnes. Mr. Barnes has been with the company for the past 23 years, first working in the field as an Installer, then as General Manager and currently the President and license holder of the company. He truly worked his way up from the bottom rung of the company ladder, gaining insight and experience every step of the way.
