With such a unique name, it’s no wonder we often get asked,
“What does Airclaws mean?”
It’s a sweet story – If you would like to hear it, keep reading…
Will Tevis was raised on the East side of Athens, OH by an Ohio University English Professor and an Alexander High School Home Economics teacher. Will was always different from his family. He loved to create and build, but didn’t care much for the classroom setting. Fortunately, his mother Jamie fostered the creative side of Will and enrolled him into a ceramics class at Seigfred Hall.
Will fell in love with clay and continued showing up at Seigfred Hall even after the class was finished. Each potter has his or her's own signature stamp. The three toed cat’s paw was the mark that Will made to mark his pottery pieces. Over time, his three children identified themselves as each one of the small circles and thought of him as the large circle. In 1994, when Will and Natalie set about creating a new heating and cooling business, Will tried to think of a way to honor his children, keep the signature stamp and have a unique business name. A cat’s paw with razor sharp talons able to grab ahold of anything – glass, steel, concrete and yes, even air.
Airclaws started in 1994 when Will and Natalie sold their first small heating and cooling job. Over the years it has transitioned from primarily commercial HVAC to a healthy mix of commercial, residential, service and maintenance. Since 2008, Airclaws has been a Bryant Factory Authorized Dealer. Partnering with Bryant has been one of the best things we could have done. Bryant has a strong program in which they work hard to help the Dealer to succeed.
In addition to heating and cooling equipment, Airclaws has added the installation, service and maintenance of indoor pool dehumidification systems, Honeywell generators as well as Regency and Napoleon brand Fireplaces.
