Comfort Pros Heating & Cooling announced new ownership under Asheville-area entrepreneur Ben Sealey, who says the Fletcher-based HVAC company will emphasize honest pricing and faith-driven service across Western North Carolina. The transition includes a new diagnostic fee, a maintenance plan and expanded focus on residential HVAC service in multiple mountain communities.

Why it matters: - Comfort Pros Heating & Cooling is signaling a business reset for homeowners in Western North Carolina. - The new ownership emphasizes straightforward pricing and repair-first recommendations, which could matter to families comparing HVAC providers in a market where emergency service and trust are critical. - The company is also using the transition to introduce new pricing and maintenance offerings.
