Gary Marowske is a familiar face in the pages of The NEWS. The owner of Flame Heating, Cooling & Electrical in Warren, Mich., has been featured in several articles, including being named The NEWS’ Best Contractor to Work For in the North Central region in 2007. His company is also one of the leading HVAC residential service and replacement businesses in Metro Detroit. Needless to say, he knows a thing or two about how to run a successful business.
Marowske credits a lot of his business success to the various contractor groups and associations he has joined over the years. In a way, he has been the Goldilocks of the HVAC contracting business, trying out a few groups before finding the one that fit just right. That association is the Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA), which he joined in 1992. His journey through other groups is an interesting story as well.
