Bob Cermignano started working in the HVAC industry at 16 years old. It was his first summer job while he was in high school. After several years of working full time in the industry, Bob Cermignano decided to go into business for himself and founded Bob Cermignano Air Conditioning & Heating, Inc. on July 12, 1980 in Ardmore, PA. When Bob first started the company, he had one truck and $750 in his pocket. The first shop that Bob rented for his company was in Ardmore, PA. The owner of the shop, a plumbing contractor, only charged Bob $1 a day for rent. As the company continued to grow and hired more employees, Bob purchased his first (and current) shop and office building in 1988.
