History  
Thermodyn, Inc. was founded in 1968 by Robert and Yvonne Hicks as a commercial A/C, heating and refrigeration service and installation company.  Residential A/C and heating service and installation was added out of necessity due to referrals from our commercial accounts.  Ted Simpson had been active in the company since 1975 and succeeded the founders in 1982.  Ted Simpson passed away in April of 2006.  He was succeeded by Steve Howell and Kris Airgood who have been active in the business respectively since 1994 as a service technician and 1990 as the company accountant.  Both Howell and Airgood are family oriented with strong community ties and participation.
