Say “Goodbye!” to cold showers in the morning or rushing to be the first in the shower. With a new tankless water heater, you’re no longer limited to the standard 40 gallons of hot water. The possibilities are truly endless!

A better fit for your home

The Morris-Jenkins story starts in 1958 when Luther Morris started with a pick-up truck, a tool shed and a simple philosophy: do what’s right by the customer.

As his business grew, he became known for sales and installations of quality air conditioning and heating systems. Always innovative and pioneering, Luther installed the first gas pack in the region. Gas packs now account for more than 20% of all residential systems in the market.

He grew the business to 12 employees and developed a reputation for honesty and quality before deciding to retire and sell the business to Dewey Jenkins in 1990.

Mr. Jenkins changed the name to Morris-Jenkins and began an emphasis on service that continues to this day. But he did more. He established the company’s core values, with which we still begin every meeting:

  • Honesty

  • Integrity

  • Fairness

  • Respect

He then added this philosophy which is central to our way of doing business: Make it easy for our customers to do business with us.

That’s why we changed our hours and became the first air conditioning, heating and plumbing company to offer weekend and evening service at no additional charge. We wanted to make it easy for our customers.

And as customers’ needs have changed, Morris-Jenkins has responded – always making it easy for our customers to do business with us. That’s the reason we offer:

Today, Morris-Jenkins is the largest provider of air conditioning, heating and plumbing services in the region and one of the largest in the nation. But we haven’t outgrown our small town beginnings.

We still provide service one customer at a time. One technician to your home, making every effort to ensure that your system provides safe and efficient heating and air conditioning. And every time you call, you get a live, local person who is concerned about your needs.

Thank you for taking time to read our story. We look forward to getting to know you and serve you.

A new tankless unit is roughly the size of a carry-on suitcase. This means it can be installed in a variety of less traditional spaces without taking up space in your laundry room or hall closet.

Installed indoors or outdoors, a tankless heater is more like a fly on the wall instead of an elephant in the room.

Courteous and friendly staff, from top to bottom.

What can we say? We take after Mr. Jenkins, himself.

Durable efficiency

These units can last up to two times longer than traditional tank units. Unlike their tank counterparts, tankless units have the advantage of replaceable parts. If a tank heater has a parts failure, you would be stuck with buying a whole new system!

Go Tankless!
