Alpine Temperature Control
HVAC contractor serving southern Utah since 1972, on heating and air conditioning for homes and businesses.
The company dates to 1972, which puts it in southern Utah before air conditioning was universal here, and it still covers heating and cooling for homes and businesses.
The wider picture
A company trading here since 1972 predates the era when refrigerated air conditioning became standard in southern Utah. For much of the region's history the answer to summer was the evaporative cooler — the 'swamp cooler' — which pulls air across wet pads and cools it by evaporation. It works remarkably well in dry desert air and costs far less to run, but it loses effectiveness during the late-summer monsoon when humidity rises, which is the main reason refrigerated systems displaced it.
