#44 Test, Don't Guess – How Mitch Bailey Built a Profitable HVAC Business Without Chasing Every Lead
Q: What shifted Mitch Bailey's business from new construction to retrofit and add-on replacement?
Liability concerns from new-construction lawsuits, the desire for higher margins, and the ability to work retail directly with homeowners led to the pivot toward retrofit/add-on replacement, where projects are smaller, payments are more reliable, and testing proves value.
#58 A Truly Differentiated Heat Pump — with Dr. Jane Melia of Harvest Thermal
Q: Jane, can you tell us about your background and what led you to build Harvest Thermal?
I'm a civil engineer with a fluid mechanics PhD who moved from corporate energy work to startups in the energy space. My co-founder husband and I wanted a clean, affordable heat pump solution after recognizing the grid and bill challenges, so we formed Harvest Thermal to decouple heat delivery from generation and storage, using a thermal battery approach.
