The secret lives of HVAC. A few weeks ago I was out on a joint visit with an engineer. I love working side by side with our customers to get work.  On the way, we got chatting about life outside HVAC. To my surprise, he says ‘‘Well, before this June, I was a drummer, I travelled around the world with a band’’ I never saw this coming. This is not the first time I have been shocked. In my time in the industry, I have met people who work in HVAC but also do the following profess

Everyone is talking about General HVAC Solutions LTD   What a week it has been. It's not every day in this industry that a long-serving trading relationship changes, and when it does, the rumour mill starts. Coupling this with a name change and bang, we have headline news about General HVAC Solutions Ltd (formerly Fujitsu General Air Conditioning UK Ltd).   All remains calm at HVAC Wholesale, its business as usual.    We thought we would take this week's chat to confirm a few

Happy New Year! I hope you all enjoyed the break and had an opportunity to relax. Congratulations to the winners of our 12 Days of Christmas promotion, and well done to Mia and Ashlie for getting all the donations from our fantastic suppliers.  While the holidays offer most of us a chance to switch off, notice I said most, not forgetting the engineers who remained on call over the break. Thank you for keeping everything running. Our first week back is dedicated to planning f

Christmas is nearly here!!  Now , I know I am early, but this week you had 3 topics.  Price increases for 2026, the Elemental London show or the 12 days of Christmas giveaway.  So, looking outside at the grey weather, the rain, and not forgetting the impending announcement from Rachel this Wednesday,  I decided to bring a little cheer.  So the Christmas tree is up in the office, the tinsel is everywhere, and thanks to Mia and Ashlie, all nestled under the tree are all the fan

This week, we were delighted to host Sarah Clarke from Toshiba. Sarah, who has a wealth of experience in the HVAC industry, has generously taken Ashlie under her wing to mentor her as our dedicated Toshiba specialist. Sarah's refreshing training approach took Ashlie for training over lunch outside the office. Since HVAC is Ashlie's first job, she loves meetings, and a "lunch meeting" is something very new. Remember those days, that feeling! I think my first meeting was in 199

Hi Everyone, Please accept my sincere apologies for the late post this week. My original topic changed entirely due to some wonderful family news we all thought it was time to share. As many of you know, HVAC Wholesale is a family business, and we are thrilled to share that Mia and Jacob are expecting a baby in March 2026! I am absolutely delighted to be becoming a grandmother, and the entire team is over the moon. This exciting news has naturally prompted a few operational a

HVAC Wholesale was founded on September 1, 2021, and we opened our doors at Sanigar Court on March 1, 2022. Like any new business, our initial challenges included securing credit accounts with manufacturers, managing cash flow, and stocking our shelves. The summer of 2022 brought record-breaking temperatures, with 40.3 degrees Celsius recorded, which, to no surprise, led to a widespread shortage of trunking. We were nervous about starting to import from Europe. Communication 

In my previous role, I spent years visiting contractors with wholesale representatives to present new products. A question that consistently arose, despite the exciting ancillaries I was there to demonstrate (no rolling of eyes, please). was "Where do you buy your copper?" At the time, this puzzled me. Now, I understand its significance. I apologise if you are already aware of the following, as it was all very new to me. At HVAC Wholesale, we source our copper from two manufa

Hi Everyone, It's October half-term, and the kids are off again. Adam and I always take this week to get away. I'm writing this week's "Monday at HVAC" blog post from the peaceful Tuscan hills, and it's given me time to reflect. Three years ago today, my situation was very different. I was on garden leave, scared, shocked, and convinced I'd never have a holiday again. Looking at LinkedIn, I see "open to work" on many faces. I was terrified; it wasn't the first time I'd faced
