Johnstone Supply Ware Group knows the importance of supporting young technicians, because they are the future of the HVAC industry!

Travis Marques of Johnstone Supply Daytona Beach is focused on the success of the HVAC Academy at Pine Ridge through Open Houses where they receive donations and learn from well seasoned HVAC trainers. Another way is through the support of local ACCA groups, and attending their graduations too!

A local HVAC company stated, “Just wanted to take a moment to reach out to let you know that the graduation at Pine Ridge high school’s HVAC academy was a huge success. The enthusiasm Mark and Travis have shown, and their hard work really made a big difference. Both had great interaction with an amazing group of young people anxious to get out into the field. Thanks to everyone at Johnstone for the tremendous support. Hope to have a couple of the graduates on our team soon.” said Richard VonBrocken of Von-Aire, Inc
