PRESS RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

Expert Air Control Joins Forces with Kliemann Brothers to Form Puget Sound’s Premier HVAC and Electrical Company 

Puyallup, WA – July 1, 2025 – Two of Puget Sound’s most trusted, family-owned HVAC companies are coming together to create the region’s most capable and customer-focused heating, cooling, and electrical service provider. 

Expert Air Control, founded in 2002 by Rick Burrill, is officially merging with Kliemann Brothers Heating & Air Conditioning, a locally owned and operated company serving Western Washington since 1998. This strategic partnership unites decades of industry experience, deep community roots, and a shared commitment to delivering exceptional service. 

The home services industry is currently experiencing mass consolidation by national private equity firms. In a move that goes against the grain, Expert Air and Kliemann Brothers have chosen a different path—pooling local resources to grow together while proudly preserving authentic Pierce County ownership. This merger ensures that decisions continue to be made by people who live and work in the communities they serve. 

“After over 30 years in the HVAC industry, there’s only one company I’d consider teaming up with—and that’s Kliemann Brothers,” said Rick Burrill, founder of Expert Air Control. “We share the same values: integrity, quality, and putting customers first. This partnership gives us more tools and resources to continue exceeding expectations.” 

The merger will allow both companies to enhance service offerings, streamline operations, and provide customers with access to a broader range of HVAC and electrical solutions—without sacrificing the personalized attention and trust that come with a locally owned business. Customers may notice the Kliemann Brothers name on communications or service vehicles, but the high level of service remains the same. Most of the Expert Air team—including Rick himself—will continue to serve customers throughout the region. 

“Together, we are building the strongest HVAC and electrical team in Puget Sound,” said Jeremy Kliemann, President of Kliemann Brothers. “We’re excited to welcome Rick and his team and expand what we can offer our customers through this partnership.” 

As the two companies come together, customers can expect improved scheduling, faster response times, and the same honest, dependable service they’ve trusted for years.
