In 1885, T.J. Fannon & Sons opened its doors at Duke and Henry Streets selling coal and wood. With the advent of trucks and automatic stokers, the coal business rapidly expanded after the turn of the century. In the twenties, Fannon made its first oil delivery and was soon installing oil heating equipment, as well as natural gas appliances. As a central air conditioning became popular in the sixties, Fannon led the way in sales and service. Since then we have engineered replacements, retrofits and new installation of boilers, furnaces, air conditioners? Everything for your home comfort. Over the past 125 years, we have been providing homeowners with the fuel and the means to heat and cool their homes.

History

Established in 1885.

Fannon’s provided firewood and coal in the nineteenth century. The advent of mechanized transport expanded the coal business, while automatic stokers were the foundation of the heating technology we know today. Fuel oil was the primary fuel from the 1940’s onward, and as piped gas became available Fannon’s installed and serviced equipment for both. The 1960’s saw the introduction of air conditioning, and Fannon provided sales and service for year-​round home comfort. Now we offer the widest range of expertise in the metro area, from the most modern heat pump systems to the crankiest old steam boiler. Our showroom includes technology from three centuries, and our staff has the experience to service an older system, or design a new one!
