HomeServe is one of the leading HVAC trade groups with a focus on private end customers and residential construction. With a presence in eight countries and a total of around 9,000 employees, HomeServe focuses on actively strengthening trade companies in the respective regions by bundling central functions so that the companies can concentrate on consulting, installation and service in the HVAC and electrical trades. With this acquisition, HomeServe will further strengthen its presence in the greater Würzburg area.
Schneider is an established PV and HVAC company in the greater Würzburg area with a focus on private end customers. The owner-managed family business with a long tradition and excellent reputation in the PV and HVAC industry is known in the greater Würzburg area for its high-quality products and first-class services.
