Partners and Allies in Sustainable
Home Improvements
Nicholas Hansen - Grant Park Heating and Cooling
Nicholas Hansen owns Grant Park Heating & Cooling, a residential HVAC company with expertise in Heat Pumps and Electrification. Nicholas entered the HVAC Trade as a Service Technician in 2014. During his career, he found that the HVAC industry is historically very wasteful and there was (and still is) much reluctance within the industry to adapt to more sustainable practices.
Realizing that the greater majority of HVAC systems in homes today can be replaced with more climate-friendly equipment, Nicholas decided to start his own company. He received his HVAC Qualifier from the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services in July of 2021 and his company has been installing highly efficient heat pumps; furnaces and boilers ever since.
