👑 ALL HAIL THE HVAC KINGS 😂

Congrats to Tim Applebaum and Drew Harman, our August service TO champs!

We have a little friendly competition between our service techs each month, and these two came out on top for August.

We can't recognize our guys enough for the incredible work they put in every day. Congrats fellas and enjoy the crowns. 🤴🫡

With all the crazy summer thunderstorms lately, we’ve been helping a lot of customers whose HVAC systems suddenly aren’t working. ⚡

We've seen a few direct lightning strikes to outdoor units and even more power surges that fried control boards, compressors and other electrical parts.

In our blog post below, we put together some information on what lightning and power surges can do to an A/C system and what you can do to help protect it.

Check out our blog or reach out through our website and we’ll send someone out to nail down the problem and give you all your options to fix it!

Protect your air conditioner or heat pump from power surges caused by lightning. Understand AC lightning strikes and get tips for surge protection during storms.

We don't JUST do air conditioner repairs in people's backyards. 🏗️

Our team was 60 feet up last week replacing parts on a rooftop A/C for a local tech business.

Whether it's in pouring rain (every day lately 😅) or beating sun, your home's backyard or your company's rooftop, our guys get the job done.

Shoutout to Ryan and Jason and for putting in the work AND sending us some great pictures from the job.

Our amazing Caring Team came up with the idea to host our own School Supply Drive. 📚✏️

We know everything is expensive right now, so we wanted to help out our employees' families and community by collecting notebooks, folders, pencil pouches, pencils, and more to get ready for the new school year.

We're very lucky to work alongside people who care this much about others. Great job, Caring Team! 💙

Springboro's under a Heat Advisory with the heat index up to 102°. Make sure to...

💧 Drink lots of water!
🌬️ Stay in the A/C as much as you can.
☀️ Keep blinds & curtains closed.
🏃🏻 Save yard work, running, other outdoor stuff for late this evening or early morning.
❄️ Don't keep bumping your thermostat lower. It won't cool your home any faster.
🐶 Keep your pets inside with plenty of water.

And if your air conditioner gives out in this heat, call Watkins at (937) 748-0220 or click below.

We'll do everything we can to get you cool again as quickly as possible! Stay safe out there.

Air conditioner repair cost in Dayton & Mason from experienced HVAC technicians. $99 diagnostics, transparent pricing, expert repairs with no pressure.

This review made our week! 🌟

Ann looked high and low for an HVAC company that’s been stable for years without changing owners – and she landed on Watkins.

That means the world to us in an industry where so many companies have sold to owners who don’t live in the communities they serve.

We're proud to still be locally owned and operated by our same Watkins family that started this thing 33 years ago!

We love this part of the review too. “Most importantly, there were no high-pressure sales tactics, just honest service.”

Thanks for trusting us with your home, Ann, and welcome to the Watkins fam! 🏡

Some tips from our pros to help out your A/C on this 90° 4th of July weekend:

✅ Replace your air filter if it's dirty.
✅ Keep your blinds closed on sunny windows.
✅ Make sure your vents aren't blocked by furniture and curtains.
✅ Clear any grass, weeds, and debris crowding your outdoor unit.
✅ Don't panic if your A/C runs nonstop or can't quite reach the temp you set. That's actually pretty normal during extreme heat.

If your air conditioner does quit on you this weekend, our team is here to help!

Stay cool and hydrated, and have a safe 4th of July, from our fam at Watkins. 🇺🇸💙

Happy HVAC Technician Appreciation Day to the best team around!! 🫡

This morning our techs got a well-earned breakfast... cooked by our own CEO and service manager. (How many CEOs are making omelets for their team before work?!)

And we handed out Watkins Way Championship Belts to recognize our techs for going above and beyond to represent Watkins with integrity. 🏅😤

This team works through 100° heat, rain, snow, crawlspaces, full-day jobs and whatever else is thrown at them to take care of our customers.

To each of our techs, we appreciate everything you do!
