Mowery Heating AC and Plumbing

What Mowery Heating AC and Plumbing does

Mowery Heating AC and Plumbing is a privately held, family-owned residential and light-commercial HVAC, plumbing, and indoor-comfort services contractor serving the Indianapolis metropolitan area, including Brownsburg, Westfield, Zionsville, and Pittsboro. Founded in 1969 and owned by Chip Cochran, the company has operated continuously for over 55 years and employs between 11 and 50 people across field service, dispatch, and management functions. Its service offering spans air conditioning installation and repair, heating and furnace service, full plumbing (including water heaters, drains, and sewers), hearth and fireplace services, iWave air purification, propane delivery in Brownsburg, and dedicated commercial services for restaurants and facilities.

The business is built on a direct-to-consumer, field-service model with 24/7 emergency availability and phone-based scheduling. Revenue is generated through four streams: one-time service and repair calls, installation projects (HVAC systems, water heaters, plumbing fixtures), commercial service contracts, and recurring annual service agreements that bundle bi-annual tune-ups with priority scheduling and tiered discounts (50% off service calls, 20% off parts and labor). Service agreements materially extend customer lifetime — multiple reviews document 7–10+ year customer relationships tied to contract savings.

Customer acquisition is overwhelmingly organic: a strong Google Business Profile (1,971 reviews at 4.9/5) and word-of-mouth referrals do most of the acquisition work, with a website (makeitmowery.com) providing service information, special offers, and contact options. The company holds no patents, operates no proprietary technology platform, and has no disclosed app, API, or AI/ML capabilities. It has been recognized as a Best of the Best Award Winner for Customer Satisfaction for two consecutive years.
