Our History in HVAC and Serving the Greater New Orleans Area

Wesley E. Surgi founded Surgi’s Heating and Air Conditioning in 1964. Between 1978 and 1981, the company was the largest Trane dealer in the United States.

Specializing in new construction projects, Mr. Surgi was instrumental in the building of the suburbs of New Orleans, including Kenner, Metairie, Slidell and Mandeville/Covington. During this time, Surgi’s Heating and Air Conditioning was responsible for 80 percent of all new construction mechanical permits filed in Jefferson Parrish, Louisiana.

In 1995, Surgi’s Heating and Air Conditioning changed ownership; Debra and Craig Johnson now own it. Mr. Johnson holds a Mechanical Contractors license for the State of Louisiana. He, his wife and two children, Evan and Rachael, live in New Orleans.
