Mom & Pop Business Day 💙
Meet the faces behind After Hours Air—Dad (Sidney) and Mom (Ericka).
To be honest this didn't start off with years of planning. This started with a man who worked in HVAC for years, and on the side helped many family, friends, and friends of friends when their systems unexpectedly broke down. Sidney dreamed of owning his own business since as long as I (Ericka) can remember- and we have been together since high school. HVAC kinda fell into his lap with one of his friends/subordinates moving jobs and inviting him to come with, and he took to it incredibly quick.
One of the things we noticed over the years was that there was a need. That need was for someone who was honest, fair, good, and available when it's not convenient. Sidney has always been someone who just wants to help. The first thing out of his mouth when he meets anyone is "How can I help" even when there is nothing waiting in return for him. I quickly realized that this was really something he could do, and I wanted to help him do it. For years he supported me in pursuing my career, and now it was my turn- and in more ways than just waiting for him to get home late.
Thus After Hours Air was born. Our pride lies in our integrity, workmanship, and treating our people like family because that's what we are all about. Whether you have a newborn who can’t regulate their temperature, a family trying to sleep through a hot Louisiana night, or just someone who shouldn’t have to choose between comfort and cost we are there for you.
From our family to yours, thank you for supporting our small business 💙
