Hammel & McCrady Heating Information

Hammel & McCrady Heating and Cooling is a contracting and service business in the residential and light commercial heating, ventilating, and air conditioning field. We install Bryant home comfort systems including gas, oil, and electric furnaces, electric air conditioning and heat pumps, gas hot water boilers, zone systems, humidifiers, air filters and related piping, duct work and electric wiring. We also service and repair these systems as well as most other brands. Hammel & McCrady was established by Herbert L. Hammel in 1945. He worked out of his home and used his car as a service vehicle for the first few years. In 1961 Robert T. McCrady married Mr. Hammel's daughter Sue and in 1963 started working in the business. Hammel & McCrady has always been a family business operated as a sole proprietorship. First owned by Mr. Hammel and then upon his retirement in 1980 Robert T. (Bob) McCrady became proprietor. The wives of the owners have been active in the bookkeeping and management of the business and the children have worked part time while they were in school. Michael D. McCrady, Bob and Sue's son, started working full time as a service technician and installer in 1985 after two years at Ohio State University. We now have four full time people and two part time people working in the business and operate a showroom and parts store. We are the oldest HVAC business in Pickaway County. We have worked at building and maintaining a reputation for quality and customer satisfaction in the heating cooling field.
