ACCA board chair frames consolidation of the fragmented HVAC industry as inevitable, drawing parallels to other industries, while warning it commoditizes the trade and limits consumer choice.

““I don't know if it's so much good or bad as it is inevitable that such a fragmented industry as ours will be consolidated to some extent. It's happened in other industries over and over, and I think it'll continue to happen,” Hoover said.”
