Denny Baumgart Created a Legacy in the HVAC Industry and So Can You

 

The ever-evolving HVAC industry calls for constant learning, with its hands-on nature often attracting those who love solving practical problems. Denny Baumgart, VP of Technical Services for Airtight Facilitech, is a lifelong learner and has pushed himself to grow his skills in the HVAC industry.

The undercurrent of his career has been a firm belief in the power of education, both receiving and imparting it. Baumgart’s commitment to training the next generation of technicians has been instrumental in maintaining a forward-thinking mindset in an industry heavily influenced by technological advancement. As he approaches retirement, he leaves behind an influential legacy, advising the budding workforce to remain open to the possibilities the HVAC industry offers, and, above all, to “be good.” Baumgart has reaped the benefits of a career in the HVAC industry and he hopes the upcoming younger generation can find the work rewarding.
