Cooling Solutions That Work as Hard as You Do
When summer hits, there’s nothing worse than stepping into a house that feels like an oven. Cooling your home shouldn’t be a luxury—it should be a promise. At Shelter Air, we bring you tailored cooling solutions that do more than just lower the temperature. We make sure your system is efficient, eco-friendly, and designed to keep you comfortable for years to come.
When I was a kid growing up in West Virginia, summer meant one thing: endless sweat. My family had a creaky old fan that sounded like it was protesting every spin. Fast forward to today, and I’m running a company dedicated to making homes cooler, healthier, and far more efficient than that fan ever was.
My journey to starting Shelter Air wasn’t just about staying comfortable—it was about understanding how energy-efficient systems can transform homes, reduce costs, and help the planet. And trust me, I still geek out over the science behind every compressor and cooling coil.
When I moved into my 1963 ranch house, I thought, “How hard can it be to keep this place cool?” Turns out, it was a nightmare. Our ancient air conditioning system was oversized, clunky, and wildly inefficient. It cooled the downstairs into an icebox while leaving the upstairs sweltering. To make matters worse, the ductwork was a disaster.
So, what did I do? I pulled out my load calculation software—yes, for fun—and discovered that the system was two times bigger than what the house actually needed. Oversized systems don’t just cost more to run—they never work quite right. That summer, I vowed to become the go-to resource for smart, effective cooling solutions. Shelter Air is the result.
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Whether you need a high-efficiency central air system or an upgrade for your old unit, we’ll recommend the perfect fit. Plus, we use load calculations (because we’re nerds like that) to ensure your system is right-sized for your home.
Say goodbye to ductwork drama. Mini-split systems provide targeted cooling for individual rooms, making them perfect for homes with unique layouts—or for those of us who live in homes where the ductwork belongs in the “what were they thinking?” hall of fame.
You wouldn’t skip a checkup for your car, so why neglect your cooling system? Regular maintenance keeps your AC running efficiently, extends its lifespan, and helps you avoid surprise breakdowns during heat waves. If something does go wrong, our expert technicians will have you back to cool in no time.
