R.F. Ohl has been a family-owned and operated business since 1984, when Bobby and Brenda started the company. Their sons, Steve and Brad are now working with Steve’s wife Kim and their sons, Ivan and Nathan. The origin of R.F. Ohl started from the need to supply diesel fuel to a water well drilling rig. The well drilling rig used 150 gallons a day of diesel. Bobby decided to buy his own fuel delivery truck, since he had previously worked for a heating oil company, to control some of his fuel costs.

Bobby’s sons Steve & Brad helped out after school and on summer vacation, working on the well drilling rig and delivering fuel. Both started working full time for Bobby in 1990. By 1996 the water well drilling business was sold in order to concentrate full time on the heating oil delivery business.

After operating from the family home for many years, Bobby opened an office, and hearth and patio showroom at the former Eckman Lumber Building in 1999. He started selling BBQ grills, oil & propane space heaters, propane & natural gas fireplaces, and other outdoor products.

In early 2002, Bobby announced that he and Brenda were going to retire in a few months. He had prepared Steve & Brad to continue operating the business and he had started to make plans to develop a propane delivery division. Unfortunately, Bobby unexpectedly passed away from cancer in August of 2002. Steve and Brad knew that they had many customers, family, and employees that depended on them, so they continued on with the plans that Bobby had started.

During 2008, Steve and Brad continued their concentration, helping their customers conserve energy. They started offering energy audits, air conditioning system installations, mini split air conditioning installation, and repair of air conditioning systems.

Solar installations, patio furniture, and indoor air quality were added in 2010.

Currently Steve & Brad have over 6,000 service and delivery customers in a 50 mile radius of their showroom. R.F. Ohl continues to be the “source for indoor comfort and outdoor fun”.

R.F. Ohl come out to my Bethlehem home to service the heating and cooling system. They serviced my gas HVAC system and my gas fireplace all in one trip, getting me ready for the winter. For the longest time, I have had a problem with one bedroom not getting enough heat in the winter or enough AC in the summer. Previously, I’ve had other HVAC companies try to fix the problem and they never could. R.F. Ohl’s technician was able to trouble shoot the issue and fix it in the same day! I definitely recommend using R.F. Ohl for your home’s HVAC, heating and cooling systems.
