JD Kirby

Owner

Taking care of people in his community has always come naturally to JD. Having grown up in St. George, KS and serving the Manhattan area for over 27 years, he’s built a reputation as the go-to local technician you can count on. That work ethic started early, watching his parents, Steve and Debbie Kirby, run their own business and put customers first every single day. Today, JD carries that same approach into every job - showing up when he says he will, doing quality work, and treating every home like it’s his own. It’s why so many local families and businesses continue to rely on him year after year. When he’s not working, JD enjoys spending time outdoors with his kids - whether it’s hunting, fishing, or finding arrowheads.

Known for his reliability and attention to detail, Stan focuses on delivering efficient, effective solutions while treating every home and customer with respect. He takes pride in providing honest work and results you can count on.
Outside of work, Stan enjoys spending time with his wife and two kids, making the most of every moment together. He also serves as a volunteer firefighter, so stepping up as a first responder and helping others in critical moments comes naturally to him.

How much do you charge to add Freon to an AC condenser?

We recommend servicing your heating and cooling systems at least once a year—typically in the spring for AC and fall for heating—to keep everything running efficiently and prevent costly breakdowns.
