About Us

Ascent Inc. was founded on a simple principle: Provide a Higher Level of Service to our Customers.

Ascent serves customers across North America and represents industry leading HVAC manufacturers. We believe that every successful project starts with a partner who works to understand the problem before proposing a solution. By combining technical expertise with a refusal to recommend a one-size-fits-most solution, we are constantly working to provide a higher level of service.
