Frazier & Deeter’s Business Beat: Craig Harrison and Kevin Van Horn, HVH Mechanical Partners

Craig Harrison and Kevin Van Horn, Co-founders of HVH Mechanical, grew up in the business, starting out in trade school and apprenticeships, with an eye to starting their own business. Once they did that six years ago, they’ve not looked back, and they shared their inspiring story with host Roger Lusby on this edition of Business Beat. Craig and Kevin covered why they’ve grown so rapidly, how their field experience helps them manage the business today, why mechanical trades present such a wonderful opportunity for young people today, and much more. Business Beat is presented by Alpharetta CPA firm Frazier & Deeter.

Kevin Van Horn, Co-Founder and President, HVH Mechanical Partners

Kevin Van Horn, Co-Founder and President, HVH Mechanical Partners, LLC

Kevin began his career in the plumbing industry at a very early age. He can vividly remember long, hot days working for his dad’s plumbing company on his high school summer breaks. He often credits this chapter of his life with developing a lifelong passion for working with his hands. When he graduated high school, Kevin knew that four years at a university did not suit his personality. Knowing that he needed a career and not just a job, he joined Local 72 as a plumbing apprentice.

After working on construction sites with pipefitters and welders, he developed an interest in pipe welding and rigging. After long consideration, he decided to concentrate on hydronic heating and cooling systems and move away from domestic water and sanitary systems.

Using his past work experience and achievements, he was able to move into the mechanical service industry. It was here that he gained extensive knowledge in the operation of mechanical equipment and how to troubleshoot and repair this equipment.

Once he reached his goal of learning everything in this industry, from install to service, it was time for him to start on his lifelong goal of business ownership. This led to the birth of HVH Mechanical Partners.

At HVH Mechanical Partners, Kevin meets with customers to discuss solutions to the concerns they have with their building’s mechanical and plumbing systems. He interacts with suppliers and vendors to ensure HVH can service its customers efficiently and economically. He works with the office and field teams to ensure that customer service is the highest priority.
