Since 1962

The Home of Old-Fashioned Service

Valley Heating, Cooling, Electrical and Solar was founded as Valley Heating and Cooling by Thomas Atkinson II in 1962. Mr. Atkinson had been in the business since 1962, working for the top HVAC manufacturer during that time. He decided it was time to use his expertise to his best ability by forming a company of his own, and that is how Valley Heating and Cooling began. Thomas Atkinson III took over the business in 1980 and ultimately grew the company well beyond what he had imagined during his 23 years of ownership.

Upon retirement, Thomas Atkinson III wanted someone to take over the business who he knew would respect and build on the successes, reputation and values upon which the company was founded. We are so proud to be part of this great company history and this great team and organization and to continue this success by continuing the tradition of “old-fashioned service.”

Our Mission and Values

Everything Your Home Needs, Under One Roof

“As a home and business owner, I know how important reliability, expert advice, quality work and customer service are to me when I hire a contractor. Knowing this, my goal is to provide a level of service that goes beyond normal expectations for our day and age. Our motto, The Home of Old-Fashioned Service, is something our parents routinely received but, unfortunately, is not something we experience that often today. At Valley, we treat folks like we want to be treated and when you call us, you will actually talk to a live person!

We take pride in what we do and we are here to make a difference—to continue a tradition of providing old-fashioned service to our residential and commercial clientele every day. Our entire team can’t wait to show you the difference great service can make. We all look forward to serving your heating, cooling, electrical, solar and, above all, ‘comfort’ needs now and for years more to come.”

- Sincerely, Cindy Faulkner
