About Goettl’s High Desert Mechanical: Four Generations of Arizona HVAC & Plumbing Expertise

Some companies talk about being “like family.” We actually are family. The Goettl family has been in the HVAC business in Arizona since 1926, when the original Goettl brothers started revolutionizing cooling technology in Phoenix. Fast forward to 1987, and Adam and Ted Goettl started Goettl’s High Desert Mechanical, bringing that family expertise to central and northern Arizona. Today, their sons Luke, Hank, and Dustin work alongside them, carrying forward what four generations have built.

We’re not trying to be the biggest HVAC and plumbing company in Arizona. We’re trying to be the one you’d recommend to your neighbor without hesitation. The one where a handshake still means something, where we fix our mistakes without making you fight for it, and where the guy who answers the phone on Tuesday is the same guy you’ll talk to next month. That kind of consistency and accountability is rare these days, and we think it matters.

Why Family Ownership Actually Matters to You

Here’s what’s different when five family members treat the business like it’s theirs (because it is): we care about the long game. We’re not maximizing quarterly profits for distant investors. We’re building something we’re handing down to the next generation. That changes how you make decisions. It means we’d rather lose money on a job than lose our reputation. It means when we hire, we’re looking for people who’ll still be here in five years. And it means when something goes wrong, there’s no bureaucratic runaround because the owners are right here, working alongside the crew.

You can feel the difference. Our customers tell us they’re surprised when they call and get a real person who actually knows what’s going on. They’re relieved when a tech shows up who’s been doing this for years, not someone two weeks into the job. And they appreciate that we remember them from one visit to the next. Those things happen naturally when you’re small enough to care and experienced enough to do the job right.

We Fix Our Mistakes, No Excuses

Most companies have elaborate processes for handling complaints. We have a simple one: if we mess up, we pay for it and make it right. No fine print, no exceptions, no making you jump through hoops. You shouldn’t have to fight to get what you paid for, and you won’t.

This guarantee isn’t about marketing. It’s about basic integrity. When your family name is on every truck and four generations have built their reputations on this work, you can’t afford to be anything less than honest. We live in these communities. We run into customers at the grocery store. That kind of face-to-face accountability keeps you honest in ways corporate policies never will.

Quality Workmanship, Guaranteed

When we leave your home, you shouldn’t have to wonder if the job was done right. Our work meets or exceeds manufacturer standards and local codes. If something’s not right, we come back and fix it at no additional cost to you. We’ve been doing this since 1987 (and the Goettl family has been in HVAC since 1926), so we know what good work looks like.

We Show Up When We Say We Will

Your time matters. We give you a clear arrival window and stick to it. If something unavoidable comes up, we call ahead so you’re not left waiting around. The techs you see in our trucks are the same ones who’ll show up at your door, not contractors we’ve never met.

No Pressure, Ever

You won’t get a sales pitch disguised as a service call. Our technicians diagnose the problem, explain your options clearly, and let you decide what makes sense for your situation and budget. Sometimes the best recommendation is to repair rather than replace, even when replacement would be more profitable for us.

Transparent Pricing

You get a clear breakdown of costs before any work starts. The price we quote is the price you pay. We don’t pad the bill or add mysterious fees after the fact. If the job turns out to be simpler than expected, you’ll see that reflected in your final invoice.

We’re Hiring People Who Truly Care

Think you’d fit on a team where fathers and sons work together, where everyone treats the business like they own it because the family name is on every truck? We’re looking for technicians and team members who want to build a career, not just collect a paycheck. If you’re skilled, reliable, and you care about doing the job right, we should talk. Check out our Careers page to see available positions.
