Watch some highlights of Sandy’s speech from our end-of-year party.

Today we wanted to share part of our end-of-year party. Sandy King, our CEO, recapped our year and made an exciting announcement. You can watch some highlights of her speech in the video above.

We wanted to celebrate Symbiont Service Corp’s fantastic year. The hard work and dedication of our employees have made this company flourish. In 2019, we earned $9.4 million in revenue. That number dropped significantly in 2020, but we continued to survive COVID. This year, we exceeded $13 million in revenue, which marks our hottest year ever. It’s all thanks to everyone at Symbiont.

This company was founded in the early ’80s by Roy and Karen King, Sandy’s parents. Since then, ownership has been passed down to her. However, Sandy has found a new successor. We’re excited to announce that, from this point forward, we will be an employee-owned business. Our Symbiont Service employees will be our new owners through our ESOP plan.

A Business Observer article by contributor Beth Luberecki, published on March 23, 2022, revealed more about Sandy’s motivation for her decision to transition to an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP). “To walk away after 26 years with Symbiont without making sure the employees are taken care of would be counterintuitive to my business philosophy,” Sandy told Ms. Luberecki in the interview. “I recognized that the strength of the company is its employees, and I wanted to do right by them. I didn’t want to have a succession plan that only took care of me. I wanted it to be symbiotic and take care of the employees too.”

We hope you’re as excited by this news as we were. As always, if you have any questions about our products or are looking to have an GeoThermal pool heating or air conditioning unit installed, feel free to call or email us. We would love to hear from you.

When homeowners or commercial building owners in Englewood, Florida call our Symbiont Service Air Conditioning office and ask, “why is my AC making noise?” That is a red flag and prompts action on the part of our HVAC professionals. Why? Because if you’re hearing a noise that is new to you — chances are it is a problem that needs to be addressed. 

The last thing you want to do, on one of the hottest and most humid days in Florida is to have your HVAC go out. If you hear a noise, schedule a service call. Chances are it could be nothing, but you don’t want to take that chance and cross your fingers hoping the noise goes away. 

When you live in an area like Florida, it is crucial to have a working air conditioning unit and this is especially true if you have a health condition or are elderly. High heat and humidity in a home or office could prove to be fatal.

If you live in Englewood, Florida chances are you already have an air conditioner in your home or your business. With the hot, humid weather that Florida gets an HVAC unit is a necessity. What happens during an A/C inspection is something that the air conditioning and geothermal professionals from Symbiont Air Conditioning get asked all the time. 

We wanted to give a brief rundown of what our professional service technicians will do and why. The reason to schedule an inspection of the air conditioning unit is something that experts agree should happen at least two times a year — and the beginning and the ends of the season. Even though Florida’s weather is somewhat consistent and there may not be a clear line between Summer and Winter, you should still plan to have an inspection every six months.
