Saunders Heating & A.C. was founded in 2013 by owner Josh Saunders, a lifelong resident of the Pittsburgh area with a passion for helping people stay comfortable in their homes. Josh’s journey in the HVAC industry began years earlier at Steel Center Area Vocational Technical School, where he earned his HVAC certification and laid the foundation for what would become his career.
After gaining more than a decade of hands-on experience working with heating and cooling systems, Josh decided to start a company that would reflect his values: honesty, hard work, and treating customers like family. That vision became Saunders Heating & A.C.—a business dedicated to providing reliable HVAC solutions to homeowners throughout Greater Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania.

From installing furnaces and repairing boilers to designing ductwork and troubleshooting complex systems, he gained a deep understanding of what it takes to keep homes comfortable year-round.
