Founded in 1984, Advanced Heating & Air Conditioning (AHAC) initially operated as Alpha Oil Company until 2000 when it transitioned exclusively to HVAC services. Established by brothers Lou and Danny Roerig, the business flourished under Danny's leadership until his retirement in 2009. The company, now helmed by nephews Louis & Nicholas, continued its upward trajectory by acquiring local HVAC businesses from 2010 to 2012, such as Advance Service Inc. & Ship Mechanical. Serving Warren, Hunterdon, and Middlesex Counties in New Jersey, as well as Lehigh and Northampton Counties in Pennsylvania, AHAC has built a strong reputation for exceptional customer service since its inception. Today, it remains committed to growth and customer satisfaction, adapting to meet the evolving needs of its expanding clientele.

Honest, Skilled Technicians: Our licensed, fully trained technicians are focused on fixing the problem, not upselling you on unnecessary equipment or services.

"Alpine installed my Trane heating and air conditioning system 18 years ago. At that time, I decided to purchase a service contract that would allow me to receive 2x a year cleaning and inspection. It was the best investment I could have made! Today their technician Troy came to conduct the preseason service on my air conditioner. My appointment was for 10am and Troy arrived promptly at 10am! During the course of the inspection, Troy discovered that the dual run capacitor was leaking oil. He showed me the part and suggested that it could be a problem down the road. Since the system is 18 years old, I wasn't surprised that there might be a worn part that would need to be replaced. Luckily, he had the part on hand and was able to do the repair right away. Because I had the service contract, I received a discount on the parts and labor which was greatly appreciated. I'm so glad that I called Alpine all those years ago. I highly recommend them for your heating and cooling needs!"
