When Rusty Rohe took over Dahl Air Conditioning and Heating a decade ago, he inherited a company with strong foundations, built in 1965. But he saw potential beyond traditional HVAC services. By relocating the business and expanding into ductwork manufacturing, Rusty positioned Dahl for long-term growth. Now, he's taking another bold step—wholesale distribution—supplying HVAC companies across Iowa. His journey has been marked by strategic decisions, including adopting the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), which has been a game-changer in streamlining operations and fueling expansion.
In this episode, Rusty shares the opportunities and challenges that come with scaling a legacy business. From managing growth pains to navigating industry shifts, he reflects on the lessons learned and what’s next for Dahl Air Conditioning and Heating. Whether you're an entrepreneur, a business leader, or someone interested in the inner workings of a successful expansion, this conversation offers valuable insights into leadership, adaptability, and the power of vision-driven decision-making.
