About R.A. Heating & Air Conditioning

Lit on Water Street since 1980.

We started as a small company working out of a single car trunk. Today we are a locally and family owned shop at 598 Water St in Evansville, with the red sign lit over the door and a crew that answers the phone around the clock when the heat or the air gives out.

From the trunk of a car to a building of our own.

R.A. Heating & Air Conditioning was established in 1980. The first jobs were done with the tools and parts carried in the back of a car. The business grew into a building with room for every part of the work, and the work has kept its Evansville address ever since.

That growth did not change who owns it. The company is locally and family owned, and it is certified as a woman-owned business. Connie Arndt is President and Ryan Arndt is Vice President.
