About Ascent Heating & Cooling
Built on Integrity. Driven by Purpose. Focused on People.
Our Story
Ascent Heating & Cooling was born from more than a passion for HVAC — it was built from a purpose.
Founded in Metro Phoenix, Ascent began as a vision to create a company that values honesty, craftsmanship, and human connection as much as technical expertise.
Our story is deeply personal. After overcoming alcoholism and rebuilding her life from the ground up, CEO Barbara Riveras discovered that true success isn’t just about business growth — it’s about becoming whole and helping others do the same.
That belief became the foundation for Ascent: a company that not only restores comfort in homes but also gives back to others on their own journeys of recovery — from addiction, trauma, or hardship of any kind.
A portion of every sale goes toward supporting others in recovery and personal growth.
