Air Ideal

About

Brief History

In 1927, the Ideal Oil Burner Co. was founded in Brooklyn, NY as one of the first central heating contracting companies in the New York Metropolitan area. Air Ideal Inc. was separately incorporated in 1948 to serve the burgeoning air conditioning market and to compliment the heating business. In the late 60s, Air Ideal relocated to Long Island along with much of the suburban population and continued to serve all aspects of the Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) market throughout the New York Metropolitan area.
