ICP Elite Dealer of the Month: Performance Heating and AC For 12 years, Founder, Tom Courtney, has built a family-oriented business dedicated to honest, dependable service. His commitment to customer satisfaction is what sets Performance Heating and AC apart, ensuring every client receives a positive experience. Being part of Baker’s Eliter Dealer Program has empowered Tom to enhance his business through training, better warranties, and affordable equipment. Primarily selling Tempstar, Tom expressed that he appreciates the overall quality of equipment of this reputable ICP brand.
