Ahrens Heating & Cooling began as only a dream for owners, Brion and Tracy Ahrens.<\/h4>\n

With nearly nine years of experience in the HVAC industry, an education in HVAC and over 13 years repairing machines in general, Brion is a highly qualified and skilled professional. Tracy boasts a decade of experience in accounting and business management, as well as a business degree.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]With their combined experience and talents, it was only natural for their ideas to merge into a business, working together as a team to service their community, support their family and turn their dream into a reality. That opportunity came in 2009, when the economy took a turn for the worse: Brion found himself laid off just two weeks after Tracy discovered she was\u00a0expecting. With a growing family of three teenagers, a baby on the way and the unemployment population in Washington County topping 14% \u2014 they decided to take control of their situation. They were no longer going to place their livelihood in the hands of another. That\u2019s when they decided to turn lemons into lemonade, and opened Ahrens Heating & Cooling.<\/p>\n

Though they knew it wasn\u2019t going to be easy to achieve, they didn\u2019t fear the hard work ahead.<\/p>\n

They valued the lessons learned in those tough times and knew the importance of being independent and positive. They earned degrees in record time while working full time with kids at home before taking the leap to launch the business. This was a true testament to their hard work and resolute.<\/p>\n

Tracy shares, \u201cWe sure hope our kids learn from our example!\u201d<\/p>\n

Contributing generously to their community is very important to the Ahrens. Brion enjoys coaching little league even when he didn’t have his own child on the team, and Tracy has always been the \u201cTeam Mom.\u201d She was an active member of the West Bend Booster Club for both East & West High Schools for the 2006-2009 school years and served as president.\u00a0Presently, they both play a large role with the youth wrestling club.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”18px”][vc_column_text]They both look forward to many more years of community involvement especially in youth sports while developing more substantial relationships with people they meet through the West Bend Chamber<\/a> events and other local happenings.<\/p>\n

Brion and Tracy feel fortunate to have such a wonderful support system in their family, friends, colleagues, neighbors and community. Kind words, suggestions, assistance and referrals are always very much appreciated. In a time when they\u2019ve heard so many reasons not to pursue \u201ctheir dream,\u201d they\u2019ve had even more support from their peers who have offered their assurance that this was their path.<\/p>\n

So with a little money in their pockets, a great vendor, lots of hard work, the support of wonderful family and friends, their undying determination and a prayer, Ahrens Heating & Cooling was born and continues to provide quality Heating & Cooling service.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″]\"\"[vc_empty_space]\"\"[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
