Our story

Forty years of keeping neighbors comfortable.

High Tech is a family business that grew out of a backyard in 1986. The crew is bigger now and so is the shop, but the phone still gets answered at 2 a.m.

Since May 1986

How it started.

Dave Bryan opened High Tech with his wife Darci in May 1986, with his father Walter as a mentor. It began as a certified, bonded Lennox dealership, with a sheet metal shop and 24-hour service department run out of the family's back yard.

In the early '90s High Tech acquired Loeder Heating and Oil in Jefferson County. In 1994 both locations moved under one roof in Cottage Grove, where the trucks still roll out every morning. Daikin and Trane joined Lennox along the way.

Faces you'll see at the door.

Service techs, installers, sheet metal fabricators and the office team who answer the phone. Look for the red vans.
