Paniccia Heating & Cooling was founded in 1993 by Mark and Sheri Paniccia with a simple but important mission: to deliver honest, high-quality work at a fair price. Over the past 30 years, they’ve served thousands of customers with integrity, professionalism, and a commitment to doing things the right way. From using drop cloths and booties to keep homes clean, to staying current with the latest HVAC technologies and indoor air quality solutions, the Paniccia family built a reputation for excellence and hometown service.
In early 2024, Mark and Sheri met Spencer Hoekstra and his wife Andrea, and quickly discovered a shared philosophy about how a business should treat its customers. The Hoekstra family has been operating with those same values—honesty, quality, and care—since 1951, across three generations. It became clear that this partnership could allow the Paniccias to retire while preserving the legacy they worked so hard to build.
As of November 1, 2025, Hoekstra has officially taken on the work of Paniccia Heating & Cooling. We’re honored to continue serving you with the same level of quality, care, and trust you’ve come to expect. Whether you’re a longtime customer or new to our services, you can count on us to deliver the latest HVAC solutions with the personal touch of a family-owned business.
With an amazing team of certified technicians and installers, you can expect the best possible service for all of your heating and cooling needs. Whether you need minor repairs and maintenance services or a brand-new, high-efficiency HVAC system installed, we get the job done right.
Hoekstra – Paniccia Heating & Air Conditioning offers a wide range of HVAC services, including the sale and service of key HVAC systems including furnaces, air conditioners and ductless mini-split systems.
