Our History
- 1898: Moncrief Furnace Company is founded by Stephen Price Moncrief, the South's first furnace manufacturing and service company of its kind—and the origin of today's Moncrief Heating & Air Conditioning!
- 1932: Laurence Kent, Sr., takes over the company following Stephen Price Moncrief's death, serving as its CEO until 1950. From there, Kent's son, Laurence, Jr., steps in, running the business until 1959.
-
1959: The Mutz family—who'd had a business relationship with the Kents dating back to the early 1930s—acquires Moncrief from the Kents, leading to the beginning of Moncrief's current era. During this period, Moncrief introduces central and high-velocity air conditioning—a lifesaver during Atlanta's sweltering summers.
- 1973: Tom Mutz I transfers ownership of Moncrief to his son, Frank, who continues building the business into one of the Atlanta area's leading HVAC providers.
-
2000s–present: Today, Moncrief is still helmed by multiple members of the Mutz family. While we stick by tried-and-true traditions, we're proud to continually update our installation, maintenance, and repair services by offering the latest in HVAC technology and customer experience platforms.
-
2023: Moncrief Heating & Air Conditioning is now an Ace Hardware Company! Ace Hardware Home Services acquires Moncrief, creating a new opportunity to redefine helpful service in the heating and cooling business.
