## Story

PENNSYLVANIA – DUCTZ recently awarded ownership of DUCTZ of South Central PA to Jerry Aument. Before assuming ownership of DUCTZ of South Central PA, which is now a service-disabled veteran-owned business under his leadership, Jerry served in the United States Army for over 3 years, which included a 9-month tour to Iraq.

“When I first began looking into potential business opportunities, I knew I wanted to go into business with a respected brand that has established a reputation for setting industry standards,” said Jerry Aument, owner of DUCTZ of South Central PA. “This, combined with the brand’s commitment to integrity, quality service, and customer satisfaction, made my decision to franchise with DUCTZ fairly simple. I was also drawn to the prospect of offering services that make a positive impact on peoples’ lives by improving air quality in their homes and businesses.

As my team and I begin offering industry-leading air duct cleaning and HVAC restoration services, I look forward to building relationships with customers and being able to give back to homes and businesses across the community while running a business I can truly be proud of.”
