I wish them all good luck in the competition.”

The ACCA Contractors of the Year award is given to one residential contractor and one commercial contractor yearly. The award recognizes the contractor members and their impact on the HVACR industry by exceeding national standards and producing exceptional performance and high-quality results. Additionally, they must demonstrate a commitment to employee training and education programs in order to leave a positive impact on their community.

The finalists are judged by a panel of past ACCA Chairs and past Contractors of the Year award winners. Finalists are required to submit photos, videos, answers to questions from the judging panel, and a company profile to the judging panel that highlight the reasons their company should be selected.
