A#1 Air has announced the relocation of its corporate headquarters to a bigger facility in Carrollton, Texas.

DALLAS -- A#1 Air, one of the leading Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex providers of air conditioning system sales, installation and service, announced the relocation of its corporate headquarters to a bigger facility in Carrollton, Texas. The move is the culmination of steady growth over the past several years and takes the locally-based, family-owned company less than one mile from its previous headquarters, also in Carrollton. This new facility provides 14,000-sq.ft. and parking for more than 100 service vehicles.

By comparison, A#1's previous facility offered 4,000-sq.ft., less than 25 dedicated service vehicle parking spaces and minimal warehouse and dispatch accommodations.

"This well-timed move provides A#1 Air with room to operate comfortably and to grow as we expand in the future," according to Sherry Green, vice-president and co-owner. "We're extremely pleased that our customers will benefit from this move, as increased efficiencies in many areas will allow us to offer even better service and increased savings."

Among the increased efficiencies A#1 expects to realize are the ability to purchase larger, volume-discounted orders from vendors; to stock specialty parts that had required expensive delivery charges; and to minimize storage and vehicle servicing fees.

President and co-owner James Green added, "In the last 20 years, we've grown from a two-person operation to having over 100 employees. We attribute our success to the way we treat both our employees and our customers - like family. Many of our employees are family members, and most have been here for several years."

He went on to say, "We believe that if you put your employees and customers first, the rest will take care of itself. My wife Sherry and I even make our personal cell phone numbers available to customers in case of emergencies. I don't know of any other company our size that does that."

A#1 Air has won numerous awards for being the "best of the best," including its recognition as the #1 Carrier residential replacement dealer for 2006, 2007 and 2008. Last year, the company was the only recipient in Texas of Carrier's prestigious President's Award. Additionally, the company was named "Best of Carrollton" for the past two years.

Sherry Green said, "We're proud of our awards, but we know we owe them all to our positive customer feedback. We're so excited that this new move will help us to make our family of customers even happier during the hottest time of the year."

A#1 Air sells, installs and services air conditioning and heating systems throughout the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. Brands offered and serviced include Amana, Trane, Goodman, Lennox, Rheem, Ruud, Honeywell, Payne, Carrier and others. A#1 employs only carefully-screened employees and does not use subcontractors. The company operates 24-hours per day, seven days per week. A#1 is a privately held company, founded in 1990 and based in Carrollton, Texas.
