A Family Owned and Operated HVAC Company - Our Story
More Than 70 Years of Family, Experience & Comfort
Since 1954, Desert Air Conditioning has been committed to one simple goal: providing the Coachella Valley with dependable comfort solutions that fit both our customers’ lifestyles and their budgets.
Our story began with Les Shaw, who founded Desert Air Conditioning with a strong belief in serving his community and treating customers with honesty, professionalism, and personal care. Today, more than 70 years and three generations later, that same philosophy remains at the heart of everything we do.
Les’s sons, Jeff and Bruce, and his grandsons, Bryan, Todd, and Brad, have continued to build upon his legacy—carrying forward his commitment to meeting the needs of homeowners and businesses throughout the Coachella Valley. If you look around the communities we serve, you’ll find Desert Air Conditioning equipment, installations, and customers who have trusted us for generations.
Today, Desert Air Conditioning is led by Les’s grandsons, Todd and Brad, who bring the same hands-on knowledge, dedication, and passion for the HVAC industry that have defined our family business for decades.
A Team Built on Experience
Desert Air Conditioning is about more than the Shaw family. Our team includes generations of factory trained, skilled technicians who share our commitment to Les Shaw’s original vision. Their experience, knowledge, and willingness to embrace modern technology allow us to deliver the quality workmanship and personalized service our customers have come to expect.
Every thermostat we calibrate, every unit we install, every maintenance and repair we perform reflects the experience of a team that has grown alongside the community we proudly serve.
For us, this is more than a business. It’s a family legacy built on relationships, craftsmanship, and a genuine commitment to our customers.
As the Coachella Valley continues to grow and change, our commitment remains the same: to provide trusted comfort solutions and exceptional service for the homes and businesses in the communities we call home.
Three generations. More than 70 years. One family committed to your comfort.
