Ted Schnettler, Owner & HVAC Master Technician
Ted is a seasoned HVAC professional with over 20 years of hands-on experience serving Lancaster County and beyond. He holds numerous industry certifications, including the prestigious and nationally recognized NATE certification—a mark of excellence in HVAC expertise. Known for getting the job done right the first time, Ted takes pride in matching every project with the right products, solutions, and long-term value.
To Ted, HVAC isn’t just a trade—it’s a passion. As Mark Twain once said, “Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” That mindset is at the heart of everything Ted brings to the table.
When he’s not on the job, Ted enjoys spending time with his wife and two children. An avid fan of all things active, you’ll often find him enjoying water sports, target shooting, biking, or riding motorcycles—always finding a way to stay busy and inspired.
Our Approach
At The AC-Team, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Every project is an opportunity to engineer smarter, more efficient systems tailored to the space and its unique needs.
We take a comprehensive approach, factoring in heat loss, insulation quality, usage patterns, and system longevity to ensure lasting performance—not just temporary solutions.
Our goal is simple: do the job right the first time and be the kind of partner customers can rely on long after the work is done.
