Labor Day, Hard Work, and the Comfort of Home

Labor Day is more than just the unofficial end of summer. It’s a holiday created to honor the American worker — the men and women who build, repair, and keep our country running. First celebrated in 1894, Labor Day is a reminder to step back, rest, and enjoy the fruits of hard work with friends and family.

A Little HVAC History

Not long after Labor Day became a holiday, another game-changing invention came along: air conditioning. In 1902, Willis Carrier developed the first modern AC system, and by the mid-1900s, cooling technology was transforming homes and workplaces across the country.

From that moment on, HVAC became part of the backbone of American life — quietly working so families could stay comfortable no matter the season.
