In this episode of ON AIR, Joe Jones and Dave Chatmon join the ACHR NEWS to explore how trusted information has shaped the HVAC industry for nearly a century—and why perspective beyond your own business is critical for growth. From the days of electric refrigeration and iceboxes to today’s digital-first world of podcasts, webinars, and social media, industry media has always helped contractors learn, adapt, and stay ahead.

They uncover surprising stories of HVAC history, lessons from competition that turned into opportunity, and why community—not isolation—is what truly elevates businesses. Whether you’re leading a one-truck shop or scaling a multi-million-dollar company, this conversation reveals what history can teach us about staying ahead in a rapidly changing industry.
