Rack, a leading energy solutions company based in South Florida, has announced the launch of its new heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) division. The company is well known for its expertise in whole-home generators, electrical work, and energy infrastructure. Now, it is expanding its trusted services to include HVAC.
This expansion follows Rack’s acquisition and relaunch of a former HVAC business in the Orlando area. The company marked its official launch across the Tri-County area—Palm Beach, Broward, and the Treasure Coast—on Memorial Day. With this move, Rack aims to become the go-to provider for comprehensive and reliable home energy solutions.
Owner and CEO Jesse Rack calls this a natural step for the company. “It just made sense. Air conditioning is literally in our name, and in South Florida, no home or building can operate without reliable AC,” he said. “We’ve earned our clients’ trust in the standby generator market by providing top-level service. Now, we are bringing that same trust to HVAC. While not everyone owns a generator, everyone has an air conditioner. This new division lets us serve more people.”
Since its founding in 1994, Rack has been a family-owned, independent electrical and energy solutions provider. The company serves residential, commercial, and industrial customers from locations in Boca Raton, Fort Pierce, West Palm Beach, and Naples. Rack is known for delivering high-quality, code-compliant services.
Rack offers a full range of home energy solutions. These include emergency power systems, electric vehicle (EV) chargers, solar panel installations, propane infrastructure, and now a comprehensive suite of HVAC services. The HVAC offerings include installation, maintenance, repair, and advanced smart thermostat upgrades. The new HVAC team operates with the same speed and professionalism as Rack’s generator technicians, providing same-day service, membership programs, and system monitoring technology.
The company’s mission is to approach every job with professionalism and care, complete projects right the first time, and leave customers satisfied with both the process and the results. These values are deeply rooted in Rack’s history.
Rack was founded by John Rack, Jesse’s father, a former New York City firefighter who moved to South Florida in the early 1990s. John brought his experience in electrical contracting and architecture to build the company. His focus on integrity, technical excellence, and customer care remains the foundation of the business.
When Jesse took over as owner and CEO, he infused the company with new energy and a modern vision. Under his leadership, Rack grew from a respected electrical contractor into a well-known brand built on trust, innovation, and strategic growth. Jesse’s goal has been to build strong teams and systems that preserve the family’s core values while scaling the business to operate like a large regional enterprise.
The launch of the HVAC division is a key part of this strategy. By adding air conditioning to its lineup, Rack now offers customers a single, reliable source for full home energy support. This expansion marks an important next chapter in the company’s ongoing journey.
